Hello, Thanks for the query.Your HbA1c% looks to be quite good, suggesting well controlled diabetes. However, in many patients with long standing diabetes, ED does develop. This is because diabetes affects microvasculature, hence blood supply to penile muscle leading to ED. The tablet that you are taking is good one. You can continue the same as and when required. Too frequent usage should be avoided. Thanks.

Your relative had suffered cv stroke most probably due to uncontrolled diabetes as evident from your description.
If treatment started within one hour of onset of stroke symptoms reverse in most of the patients.
As your doctor has advised speech therapy and physiotherapy means stroke features can not be reversed.
Further improvement will depend upon control of all risk factors like diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia etc. And effective speech therapy and physiotherapy.
