[Autoimmune diseases + herpes]

I was diagnosed with GHSV1 a couple months ago & have decided to take the daily antiviral. From living with type 1 diabetes for most of my life, I’ve experienced how autoimmune diseases consistently create a chain reaction of medical issues. I assume that I largely have my disadvantaged immune system to thank for contracting this new virus.

But, not here to complain! I’m wondering if anyone here has HSV + a similar disease? Have you made connections to outbreaks with other illnesses? Do your outbreaks take longer to heal? 

 

For example, high blood sugars can cause frequent yeast infections that cannot be fought with natural remedies. Any insight will be helpful, thank you!

Hi, I know this is an old post but just want to ask  since you mentioned autoimmune disease.I know someone who has autoimmune and contracted herpes as well. My question is, did your body react differently to herpes? How was your OB? A friend of mine who has it, got really sick...worse than flu like symptoms that we thought she won’t make it. Thanks
