Anyone heard of injections for erections being in short supply

Hi all, went with hubby today supposedly for a seminar on how the injections work and how to use them. Turned out they had booked us into the wrong seminar - this was for patients 6 weeks post op. Nurse apologised but said that injections are in short supply and it is nationwide and there will be no more seminars until next year. I must admit we were really peed off especially as we had taken time off of work as hospital is in central London, and the expectation that after nearly 10 months we may have a sex life again. Anyone else heard of this or is it just that hospitals budget cuts?

    I live in the US, no problem at all with anything; no lack of supply. Pbrhaps go to a Canadian website to purchase the injectable.
