In college, one of my cousins took some pills that gave him an erection lasting longer than 4 hours. IIRC the instructions were to take ONE pill and he took all six. Around the 12 hour mark, I believe it was rather painful for him. IDK if it was from the erection or the fact that we thumped him on his cawk every time he passed by. Regardless, we had to bring him to the ER and he said the process to get it to go down involved a huge syringe and draining of blood. He passed out during the draining process, so he couldn't tell us if it was painful or not...
Since this man is from Reynosa, Mexico(very dangerous place) I think he's armed & ready to go. Maybe the media misconstrued his intention or they just overglorified the story for publicity.
I first heard of the effects of V in Miami in 2000 from a fellow worker.............Like he was 12 again and it was hard,,,cat couldn't scratch it,and it glowed...........I took him at his word.!!
