It sounds like you are very knowledgeable about your body, and unfortunately, this is a condition that is difficult for many partners to understand.
Since you are open to seeing a doctor, what is stopping you? Are you dependent on your girlfriend's support or financial assistance in order to see a health care professional? I understand it would be nice to have her support and understanding, but if you have the financial means, it would be recommended that you see a doctor for a medical evaluation. This would not only help you receive a diagnosis and begin treatment, but you can also speak with your doctor about how to talk with your partner about ED. Your doctor likely has written literature about ED that is written for the sexual partner, in terms they can understand...as well as suggestions about how the partner can offer their support throughout the process.
Please let us know how you are doing; I would love to hear back from you after your doctor's appointment.
