One up, one down, nobody on third to bring it home ... What DO ya do ... ? It starts out with 'Mister Happy' bein' all 'down in the mouth', so a guy asks the doc to hook him up with the 'instant stiffener'. One day, he finds he can't hear anything ... and nobody's legs are covering his ears, either. He thinks, 'Dang! I musta screwed away my hearing!' and goes to see the doc again - only to find out his 'evil twin's 'disability medication' is responsible for his defliction ...

This brings back memories of Frank Zappa's 'Nanook Rubs It' and 'Don't Eat the Yellow Snow' ... such grace 'n sensitivity - just like this story's theme ... but hey, if they can't hear, they'll never hear 'em screaming 'NOOOOOOO! Don't stop NOW ... !' ...

Study: Viagra May Be Linked To Hearing Loss

Researcher At University Of Alabama - Birmingham Studies 11,000 Men Over The Age Of 40; Docs Urge Caution

YORKTOWN HEIGHTS, N.Y. (CBS) ―(9/2/2009) It's the little blue pill that works wonders for the sex life. But does taking Viagra increase the risk of hearing loss?

A new study is raising concern about a troubling side effect from Viagra and similar drugs.

Hearing expert Dr. Scott Messenger has learned to ask men of a certain age a certain question when they report sudden hearing loss. "We are now asking, are you taking any erectile dysfunction medication?" Messenger said.

Soon after Viagra hit the market in 1998 a handful of reports began to surface of men suffering from sudden hearing loss after taking Viagra.

Three years ago the Food & Drug Administration ordered the makers of Viagra and similar drugs to include a hearing loss warning on their lengthy patient information forms.

That's when a researcher from the University of Alabama-Birmingham decided to take a closer look.

He studied medical records of more than 11,000 men over the age of 40. Of those reporting hearing loss 3 percent had taken a drug for erectile dysfunction. But of those with "no" hearing loss only 1.4 percent had taken e-d drugs.

In other words, men who self-reported hearing loss were more than twice as likely to have used a type of erectile dysfunction medication in the past.

For a minit I thought you were gonna start sayin' stuff like the Polish bridegroom did on his weddin' night ... 'Better stand back - I don't know how big this thing gets' ... and then he tried to reassure her by sayin' 'Maybe we should wait 'til the swelling goes down' ...

Or: "Can you hear me NOW ... ?" ...
