I'm a doctor, and I can assure you that if there's been some change in your willy then it's a medical issue and should be looked into. That means seeing your GP and demanding a referral when he brushes you off, which he will do, as most GPs are idiots. And you'd better go private, because if you're over 45 the NHS pretty much writes you off as dead. But it could be worse--you could live in Holland, in which case they'd kill you.

I know men older than you who use Viagra or penile injections to still have an active sex life. The frequency will probably pass and may just be something on your mind. I would be interested to know if this is just happening at night or in the day also. Age is not an issue, it is just a shame that more men do not see their GP for advice when they have impotance early on in life and assume it is their age.

 Im not a doctor, but from what I know, erections are never abnormal. Good on you for being 80 and still able to get hard! ;o) Im thinking that maybe you are dreaming sexually, but not remembering the dream when you wake up. Masterbation is nothing to be ashamed of either. Go for it boy! Best wishesx
