@Flowerteacher55 and @LosingHope Thank you for your response. I feel I have HSV-1 at both locations. Same thing happened with me, I started getting ringing sound in my ear around July 2022. I am still getting it continuesly 24/7, sometimes it lessens and during HSV symptoms it increases. The sound is more noticeable during the bed times. In the early stage when I was not aware about my status the sound was frequent and not constant, but after horrible outbreak and when I fall sick I started noticing it daily. I recently visited ear specialist, he told me to ignore it as my hearing abilities are good. I also visited infectious disease specialist he told me to stop antivirals and prescribed me vitamins. I hope this will get better over the time. @LosingHope are taking any medicine or antivirals for it? Than you.

Hi all, I started getting ringing sound in my ear which is called tinnitus. Found more noticeable sound during the bed time. I did type specific test after this symptom and found that I have HSV-1. Is there anyone facing same issue? Is there any treatment to reduce or get ride of this tinnitus? The sores comes and go away but this ringing sound is constant 24/7. Please help. Thanks.

Hi @Flowerteacher55 No, I am not diabetic, previously the doctor told me to do sugar test after looking at darkness on neck. I did HbA1C and it came back as non diabetic. Thanks.

I am worried after reading about Addison disease. My skin color around neck and underarms turns black, which happens mostly in diabetic condition. The skin is not itchy and not getting burning sensation. My skin darkness lowered when I took antiviral Acyclovir. But still little darkness is there. I don't get it all the time. I remember whenever I become ill with fever I saw this skin darkness. I hope it's not an Addison disease. 😞 I am happy to live with herpes but not with Addison disease.

Hello all, Its been 3 months I diagnosed with HSV. I know the most of the symptoms of HSV and can relate. I am getting other symptoms too, is there anyone getting darker skin issues around neck, underarms and face? Also black spots like ageing spots over body? I am also getting occasional night sweats and muscle pain. Are these symptoms of HSV or anything else? I found that diabetes can cause darkening of Skin hence I did HbA1C test and the test reports came normal. Please help. Thanks

Hi @Seeker1960 Thank you for your kind words. I am alive as I can see some hopes in current vaccine study and hoping to get cure soon. Thanks.

Hi, Thank you for your response. I love childrens, those cute smiles and talks. I dreamed alot about my future family. And now it looks like everything is over after diagnosis. I am praying to God everyday to bless us with atleast one child and healthy life to both of us. Can I ask one thing? How long you have been suffering from herpes?

Hi Grace, Thank you for your response. I am trying to get through it. But all the time I feel that I become totally different person. I loved to do exercise, go out for running, partying and enjoying life fully, but now I feel I lost everything. Whenever I look peoples around me, I feel like how lucky they are, living normal life without any restriction. Since my diagnosis I became totally silent person. Questioning all the time to myself that why I got this. What kind of bad karma I did which gave me this virus. I feel I lost everything thing. I can't have babies and can't see those cute smiles in my life. I dreamed alot about my partner and family. Now all those things become a dream for me lifetime 😭. This is really impacting my office work, not able to concentrate on my work at all. I fear I will get fired if continue like this. 😞

Hi, How long can person with HSV live? Is there anyone who have hsv for more than 30 to 40 years and are still living normal and healthy life? Thanks

Ok, does having HSV makes people unfit for government job in US?

I can't take any legal action against him because there is no such law in our country. And also I fear to get exposed to everyone that I have something which is contagious. I am dying inside.

Hi All, I am going through very tough situation. It's hard to believe but one of my friend intensionally transferred herpes to me. I am suffering from it since last one year but didn't knew that it's an STD. Two months ago when I visited his house I saw he is getting similar symptoms like I got. I told him that I am getting similar symptoms since last year, and asked him about it but he refused to tell me. I did internet search and found that it's something called HSV, I did all STD testing and finally found out that I am HSV positive. I tried to contact him but he blocked me everywhere, not responding to calls. I never had sexual contact with any other person apart from my partner. I feel my life is over, how can someone do like this? Why God did this to me? I never did anything wrong to anyone. I am totally lost. Don't know what to do? Getting suicidal thoughts. Was God wanted me to suffer from this? Am I destined to get this?

Hi All, Can anyone please tell me whether private employer or PSU reject us for Job based on our HSV status? I am very worried about looking for job, because many companies conducts medical tests before joining. Thanks

Hi Trueheart, Thank you for sharing your story and motivating me. I would like to know how you are raising your childrens when you have herpes. I mean what precautions you are taking to keep your childrens away from this virus? Many thanks.

Hi all, I would like to know if there is anyone who have healthy babies even after having HSV positive? I would like to know from our community that how they are managing and keeping there babies safe from herpes? Thanks
