[Recurrent Outbreaks]

Thanks for your reply. I read about lysine and I just started to take magnesium and zinc. I also mix tea tree oil with coconut oil and use a swab to apply it directly to the sore and I have found that it works super quick to dry it up 2-3 days it's gone. Sorry that you feel the way you are feeling and have to go through this. This virus is horrible, I hope they find a vaccine/ cure soon for this. Wish you all the best and hope you get some relief soon.

[Recurrent Outbreaks]

I have had hsv2 for the pass 4 years with multiple out breaks throughout that period However I have found that I have 2 back to back outbreaks last month and this month right before my period. On top of that I have a burning in my butt region and nerve pain in my buttocks going down one leg. In addition, I fell ill with the last out breaks. I took medication for the very first time and it worked well however as soon as I was finished everything returned. I have been very stressed out, depressed and worried these last 8 weeks. Is anyone else experiencing these symptoms?

[Why me, I can't handle this...What really happened]

Hey I am feeling the same way too. I recently had an encounter and now I have some symptoms that indicate HSV. I am awaiting my blood test results. I am in relationship and don’t know how to tell my bf what I did and what I might have. He will be devastated. I don’t think that I have passed it to him because we have not had sex since that encounter. I am trying to avoid him but I don’t know how long I can do that. I am also thinking about ending life too but I have joined this group for support. You have come to the right place. Stay strong.

Do you have blisters?   Did the man have a cold sore on his mouth? You need to call your doctor back and tell her your symptoms are worse.  Trust me herpes is not worth any suicidal thoughts. It’s manageable if it is. You’ll be okay! 

 

The way mine started was a sore that looked like I had nicked myself shaving on my vaginal lip. Then that night it got a little itchy. Three days later I was broken out in blisters everywhere.. there was a lot of pain from walking and sitting. I don’t remember my back hurting though. It is true that the herpes virus does sit in your lower back if you have the genital version but I don’t think it causes back pain(could be wrong again) 

Hey I do not have a rash it’s more like a sore area in my butt crack. I am not sure if he had a sore in his mouth. I’m devastated and scared all I do is cry I cannot believe this has happened to me. Thanks for your support.

I recently received oral sex and a little skin to skin contact with a young man. 1 week after my butt crack started to burn then the area became very sore. I thought it was caused by a recent yeast infection. I visited the doctor for my smear and std testing and showed her, she said it could be from the yeast and gave me an anti fungal cream. I told her that I was experiencing lower back pain and she looked at me strange and said wait until my bloods return. Over the next couple days my pains are worse. I am having a numb burning pain in butt cheeks, lower back, fever and sore skin . I am so scared as I am in relationship. I did not have sex with my partner since this encounter so I can safely say I have not passed it to him. Is this herpes? If so how do I break the news to my partner, family and friends. I am contemplating suicide because I feel as if I have disappoint so many people as I have really good career and has always been focus. Please help.
