This may be small fries with all the Osama shit going on but I have a question for anyone that has a serious response here. I know someone who is a Diabetic so bad they get a disability check for it. He has been spending time with a young lady that I know and it was told to me last night that they are not sexually active because of his condition. In other words he can't get an erection. I know nothing about either of these problems and am wondering if this is a common thing with a serious Diabetic male?

What causes erectile dysfunction (ED)?
Since an erection requires a precise sequence of events, ED can occur when any of the events is disrupted. The sequence includes nerve impulses in the brain, spinal column, and area around the penis, and response in muscles, fibrous tissues, veins, and arteries in and near the corpora cavernosa.
Damage to nerves, arteries, smooth muscles, and fibrous tissues, often as a result of disease, is the most common cause of ED. Diseases—such as diabetes, kidney disease, chronic alcoholism, multiple sclerosis, atherosclerosis, vascular disease, and neurologic disease—account for about 70 percent of ED cases. Between 35 and 50 percent of men with diabetes experience ED.
