I was diagnosed after going to ER, did not know this was what it was. I went to my regular dr about a week later, of course she had to examine me herself. I & my husband have been faithful to each other for over 40years. My doc told me it can take years for it to show up. Stress is a trigger. My husband has genital warts, doc said alot of times this goes hand in hand. My question is I have been on valtrex for last 4 weeks. 1 a day for about 2 weeks. The itching & tingling kept on. I took 2 times a day, it's better. Do I need to keep taking 2 a day-150mg each tablet?
