  1. Totally feel your ‘pain’ 😞 As soon as I start to feel anything that resembles an outbreak I stop eating sugar entirely.(actually I try to eat none because for me an OB isn’t worth some M&Ms) Umm I’m not sure if it’s science but I think the virus seems to use that fuel most efficiently. So I stop all sugar, take a probiotic (since 80% of you immune system is in your gut and that IS science), take vit D which helps your body differentiate betweeen the good guys and the bad and not overreact. I think a lot of the nerve type pain is really your body fighting hard back with disregard to what it’s killing. Most of the time that will stop the pain in one day. And you can sometimes prevent it if you can catch earlier sumptoms before you get to the ‘OMG the virus is moving up and down my nerves until they are raw’ stage. For me that’s often craving sugar- or feeling like I might have a UTI coming on- so watch for that. I’ve had success (going from 12 to 1 OB per year) with taking gigartina red algae as immune support close to daily. I’m not a big fan of the big pharma anti-virals. You can also grab some oregano oil- or olive leaf. Oregano oil is an antimicrobial and the olive leaf interrupts the virus multiplication which in turn eases the resulting outbreak. I don’t use either of those daily though- just as needed. Carmen
  2. I was diagnosed with HSV2 about 5 years ago. I don’t have genital outbreaks except maybe 1x a year. I am totally clear of HSV-1. I’m curious if anyone else has had secondary panodrom in other locations such as burning and itching in the nose, corners of lips or eyes. I didn’t think it was possible to infect yourself and others or have it orally really. I figured it was just nerves acting up. I’ve never seen an open sore etc. Seemingly impossibly after reading this website I backed way down on my paranoia about spreading it through kissing, towels etc and was just good about washing my hands. There is no way I have ever touched a sore and then a family member. I’m still extremely careful then. But I also started kissing my son bye again at school- and just this year my youngest son ( which is absolutely heartbreaking I try not to think about it every day now what’s done is done) seems to have full-on outbreaks along the corner of his nostril and at least peeling on the edge of his lip. How is this possible? Where did I misstep? How can I take him to get tested and ALSO how do I explain how he has HSV-2 when it’s supposedly not possible without sexual contact??!! I can’t even wrap my head around it or what to do.
