Cialis complications/dosage

I've been on 5mg if cialis for 3 weeks.  My nocturia is improving daily but when I do wake up its often very hard for me to empty my bladder because the cialis has given me a strong erection.   Sometimes it takes half an hour to relax and even then I'm retaining enough to get me up again in an hour or so.

I'm thinking that I might be sensitive to cialis and should take it every other night to see what happens.

Anybody else have this experience?

Every person is different, so just adjust the dosage until it works properly for you. This might be half a pill every day, or every second or third day. Take the least that works. I do this for every medication i take - as little as possible that gets the job done. I take Flomax every other day, but every  third day isn't enough. 

You may want to try 2.5 mgs rather than every other night.

Well, I have to say lucky you in one way!  O 5mg a day for just a week so far, so not expecting anything post surgery so soon...
