Viagra vs. Levitra...

Not really a difference for me, neither works....    However Viagra has a flushing issue for me, and Levitra works longer, but may not have as fast an initial start to it as Viagra does.   Try both, and decide.  Remember, don't be disappointed if nothing happens with either, its early in your progress from surgery still, so expecting much in a month is ok, but don't be disappointed if it doesn't react.  If you haven't discussed it yet, I'd ask the doc for a prescription for a VED (pump at the 2 to 3 months mark, to start blood flow and penile atrophy therepy.  That's the usual steps, pills, pump, and injection in that order.  

Are you getting any signs of an erection without meds? My doctor just gave me the same two. I have not tried the Viagra yet but the Lavitra worked great for me. My erections were good, ( first one 5 days post op and about 80% without meds) but with the Lavitra they are like pre op. I was quite surprised and pleased. I got a little headache from it but it is worth it. His nurse called and said the Cialis is in and she is sending me some samples of it. I hope it works as well. I like the idea of it working for 24-36 hours.

You are young and have a good chance of regaining your erections.

Good luck and stay positive.

I also had one nerve bundle removed and, as my doctor forewarned, it has been a slow road back in the erection department. I tried Viagra early on with no results. Not much better with Cialis, but had a major problem with "flushing". Got some Levitra samples from my doc and,thankfully, am starting to achieve erections again with very little of the flushing. I guess everyone reacts differently to the various drugs available. Anyway, good luck and stay positive.
