[Monthly outbreaks?]

I've had an outbreak every month since I've been diagnosed. Its like clockwork I feel another coming soon. Is this normal? Is my immune system bad? I didnt think having them this much was normal or a good thing. I hope they slow down.....

[Constant symptoms? Will it ever get better?]

I've had 4 outbreaks in tyr last 5 months so I understand your pain. They've been like clockwork the last several months I'll have an OB then a week of being then 3 or four weeks healed then another will pop up. Hopefully it will adjust and slow down over time.

[Questions about outbreaks?]

The outbreak I am having now is going away pretty quickly it's already starting to heal much faster than my others so that makes me feel better. I'm hopeful that after awhile my body will adjust and I'll have the outbreaks less.

[Questions about outbreaks?]

So I've now had three outbreaks in the last three months. They seem to go in a cycle on a week off for three weeks and then it returns. It's not a bad outbreak when it does but it's a little discouraging because I was hoping to have a lot less of them. Is it normal to have outbreaks like this? Will they reduce and slow down in time? What's your experience with them?. I read a lot of people only have a few a year and maybe my immune system isnt good and that's the reason I've had them so close together. I dont know how true that is.

[Ongoing prodrome symptoms]

Ah I'm kind of in the same boat. Getting these sensations and itches but no OB yet. 

[Prodrome]

I'm just healing from a breakout and I still dont fully understand my triggers or signs of prodrome yet. I can say the sores have fully healed but I'm starting to get little odd feelings in that area accompanied by mild itching. It's been almost two days I feel like this is prodrome and I'm wondering how long it lasts and does it always mean another outbreak is oncoming? I hate to think I'll have one back to back.

[Just found out. Now what.]

I'm 31 years old I was diagnosed with hsv2 around the middle of august. Not sure exactly how long I've had it to be honest I'm still confused. I have had an outbreak since the diagnosis I feel like the stress of it triggered it and not necessarily an initial outbreak . I'm afraid I may of had it for awhile because I've had some minor symptoms in the past that I just chalked up to skin irritation. I did the right thing and I told my ex girlfriend about my diagnosis and one other girl i messed with after my ex(these are the only two women I've messed with in the past few years). It was very hard to tell my ex because we had just reestablished a friendship I had been trying so hard to reconnect and I was afraid it would ruin it. I knew I still needed to tell her. I'm just not sure what's next. I've been wanting to get back into dating but I'm afraid that may be difficult or too soon for me. I do get the fear that my love life is ruined. I'll be honest I was really hoping to reconnect with my ex but that might not be possible now.
