Hello ! I was just unfortunately diagnosed with GHSV-1 about maybe 2 weeks ago while going through what appears to be have been an initial outbreak. It was the most painful thing i have every experienced and I wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemy. i was put on 1000mg of valacyclovir to take and then was put on suppression therapy of 500mg to take daily when those pills finished. I thought I was over the outbreak for a day because the burning and epic pain kind of stopped or got less severe but then I got my period and i started getting the itching , tingling and uncomfortable feeling again. My skin looks red but i figured it was the initial lesions healing. Is it possible to get 2 breakouts back to back just within a day ? Or am I still going through my initial outbreak ? I’m going crazy here and im trying to come to terms with this new found change in my life but the pain and overall discomfort that i deal with daily are both hindering any progress I’m making mentally. Can someone give me some advice or anything ? Literally anything. I have only had 2 sexual partners in my life as a 25 year old and my last partner gave this to me without him knowing he was positive for both strains. I’ve always been safe and was also being safe when I got this damn thing and now I have never felt so fucking small. Thank you to whoever read this . Kinda helped to type it all or even though my genitals are tingling like a motherfucker -_- .
