  1. It could be the sign of an outbreak and podrome symptons. Yes usually you tingle and are sensitive when you have an outbreak or shedding.
  2. Excatly. My reaction was the same thing. Run ! I mean you deserve honesty. Make the desicion for youself, because truthfully you are not doing anything wrong !
  3. Yes ! I am so happy for you. (: Keep having a blast and having a good time ! O: People are starting to acknowledge me more and say hi to me now also a lot. I feel like I am blooming a lot more lately !
  4. ((: Good and post anytime. We are like a huge family here. I wish Dancer was on. She has tons of great information. (:
  5. The scab thing is normal.. Get some coconut oil and put it on there. It helps me.. You should try it. It wouldn't hurt.
  6. yeah I have been depressed also, that is why I started working out to begin with.. and I wanted to live a healthier life.. i suck at working out now, but I should get there sometime. Awesome. I have HSv-2 also. (:
  7. I think if you are asymptomatic, you should take 1000 mg of L-Lysine twice a day. My doctor told me that if I was asymptomatic he wouldn't even prescribe me the antivirals because they kill the immune system.
  8. The other doctor prescribed me 800 mg of Aciclovyr for suppressive therapy, and when my actual doctor looked he said that it was WAY TO HIGH.. && that I needed to dose down to 400 mg twice a day. Also he printed out a handout of studies from Harvard University saying that 500-1000 mg of L-Lysine a day also decreases the chance of spreading it. (: But also talk to your doctor, because it differs from person to person.
  9. I definitely still use tampons. Actually I heard that most women who use pads tend to get outbreaks during their period because of how wet and moist it gets and triggers an outbreak. I don't have any problems while using tampons !
  10. It definitely does sound like it, but the way you can know for sure is by getting tested. (:
  11. I wish Dancer was on here. Oh wait hold on ! I can give you the hand outs myself. (: http://thehopp.us2.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=496e1102b22e0b6a6695ce671&id=83b37141ca Follow that link and you can put your email in and it will give you a handout about disclosing and a handout about information of type 1 and type 2. (: I hope these help. I know when I found out, I was devastated. My boyfriend was there for me and told me still wanted me.. I tried to talk to him about it, but it was so awkward at first. So I came here.. && WALA! I have the help and the courage to get through this. That is all you can do is take things one step at a time, and day by day. Soon it will be a lot easier. I promise !
  12. @Carly . Hi. (: I am Victoria. I haven't been on here in a while. I just haven't been feeling myself lately. I know you are scared, but you need to wait until you are FOR SURE that you are ready and this is what you want to do. Just like Dancer said 80% of the population has it. When you do disclose to him you can say something like " I know I have this, but 80% of the people who have it don't even know they have it. I wanted to tell you because I really like you and I would like to take the precautions to keep us safe." Of course just like when you or I disclose to anyone we need to be ready to face that they might just not stay with us. That they might not want to take that chance.. but you know that is there choice. You are a lot stronger than a lot of people out there, because you are holding sex back and not just hiding it from him. You are making the right decision by letting him make that choice. I know you are falling for him, but just make sure that you know for sure that you want to disclose to him. When I found out that I have herpes. I talked to my mom. My mom got it when she was raped also. She told me how she got it.. I didn't get it from getting raped, and so I remember telling her that it was all my fault. My mom told me that no matter the scenerio it is not our faults. We were victims here. It's not like we tried to get this. This virus does not discriminate against anyone.
  13. It shouldn't effect your excersizing plans. (: I started excersizing and now it is a part of my daily routine.. and Klopz we haven't seen her in a while. She excersizes all the time. You should definitely get that checked out by a professional, because it doesn't necessarily mean you have herpes. But if you do it could be that your body is healing it faster than most.
  14. @Msmee Welcome ! Thank you for posting in here. I am glad you came here. This community has been such a big help for me and for others. Not only because people help me, but because I can give my opinions and experiences to others as well. I haven't been on in about a week or so because I have been down in the dumps, but I am back to help ! Anyways, it is normal to feel that way. I remember calling my boyfriend 5 minutes after I found out that I had herpes, because I just couldn't hide it from him. Within 5 minutes it was eating me inside and out. && I told him. Luckily we haven't had sex at all yet. Well I felt bad because I had to tell some of my recent partners... that I have herpes and that they need to go get checked. None of them yelled at me or were mad at me.. but I continued to express my concern to them and apologize to them many times. I felt bad because I didn't know and I wasn't able to keep them safe. Only one of them came back up positive.. and I kept apologizing, and I knew though inside that he could have been the one who gave it to me also.. but you know. We live and we learn and it is good that you can learn from it and take different approaches to sex. (:
  15. Herry my friend, that lady was wrong. I know it hurts and I know it stungs, but she doesn't what she is missing. She doesn't know that she could have taken the chances and been with an amazing person. && that is her loss not yours. (: I am here for you any time !
  16. Hahahahahaha. (: Thank you ! I am laughing here.
  17. First off. I completely understand where you are coming from. I was at a friends house a few nights ago and a lot of people in the room were talking about STD's and how gross people who had them were.. I have no idea how the issue came up, but it did. I was so hurt... but I had to hide the pain. Finally, I have had enough of it. I left. Sitting here think that every little bump everywhere is herpes, when it isn't. It's just scary, because we got that choice taken away from us. Now we have to admit to every person we are with about our little H friend. && you know most of the time I don't even think about it.. and most of the time I think that is not that big of a deal, but when it gets brought up like that it really really hurts and stings.. I was just sitting there thinking... Am I really that nasty ? Am i really that disgusting? None of these people even know that I have an STD, yet they are talking about others who do have STD's... and they would never know unless I told them. Until that moment when they find out (( Which they won't)) they wouldn't think I was nasty. The stigma is fucking ridiculous and really hurts my feelings and everyone elses feelings. && about your friend thinking that everything is about you. You were speaking the truth. What was on your mind, she should have never came to you to talk about it if she was going to be upset with what came out of your mouth. I mean when you are talking to a friend and telling them not to go with a girl that has an STD that definitely sounds like he thinks people with STD's are unloving.. Thats just like today my friend talked to me and she started crying, because she had sex with her ex boyfriend unprotected, AFTER I TOLD HER A MILLION TIMES TO USE A CONDOM, and she says she remembers that her friend has herpes, and that she slept with her ex boyfriend. So she needs to get checked.. She says " I don't know what I will do if I have herpes." && I know I went through those feelings when I went to go get checked out, and I was telling her that if it happens that she will live. 80% of Americans have herpes anyways.. and its really not that bad. && She was like " Well then no one will want to be with me any more" I told her that I have plenty of guys that still want me despite the herpes.. I am sorry for talking so much, but I needed to vent a little also.
  18. xDD Lelani is right ! The only reason I took out the mirror is because I felt sooooo much pain ! I wanted to see what was going on.
  19. Yeah when I had my first lesion down under I remember that it felt like a cut.. I remember looking in the mirror and it looked like a cut also. When I went to the doctor I told her what it felt like and she said that it sounds like a herpes lesion. Although you can have both HSV-1 or 2 down there.
  20. I just wanted to say that I am sorry I haven't been on lately. I felt like I have been letting a lot of people down, but I have been down in the dumps the past week or so. I am back though. (: Someone say something funny !
  21. On top of that... I refuse to take the pain meds they gave me.. I chose to just deal with it and im on day 5.. I am a recovering addict.. So I would just rather not.
  22. Sab123 --Hahaha I know what you mean about being a hypocondriac, but I am starting to get myself into the habit of not worrying to much. I think something, I go and check it out.. but then if its cool then its cool... Being a hypochondriac and stressing is the first way to live an unhealthy life.. it will make you physically sick. Anyways.. There are certain things that I had to change.. Like I can't use soap or body wash, and if I do I have to make them myself so I don't have rashes or anything else. Laundry detergent I can only use one kind.. & So everything that I am able to use is strict ! And Dancer is right it could be an allergic reaction or anything.
  23. :3 Cute ! Yeah I just over stress myself.. Even with the tiniest bit of stress.
  24. @Lelani .. I am about to move to the other side of the country also.. For my boyfriend. He is getting me a ticket, but I have to wait for these Hep C results to come back in.. I asked him about that and asked if he wanted to still be with me if the Hep C came back positive.. (( There is the tiniest chance of spreading Hep C sexually, but there is still a chance.)) and he said "Let me tell you something.. I don't care what you have. I love the person you are and I want to stay by your side no matter what." You know how good that was to hear ? && for us to have family that support us. Yeah you telling your adult children is big !! I remember when I was 13 my mother told me about her having Herpes also. She told me everything about it.. I kept asking her questions.. She always just told me to be careful. So I grew up knowing about her having herpes. Also it helped me look into other STD's at a young age. So I knew who to go to when I found out.. My mom. (: Nice to meet you. ((:
  25. Yeah luckily I only had two taken out, but she said that since I have never really had surgery and since she knows that I have H, that they would only take two out at a time because they didn't want to cause me to have a bad outbreak.. I thought it was weird when they asked if I had herpes.. The dentist said it was normal.. That she has it also, but they ask that, because they don't wanna do too much oral work at once and cause a bad outbreak.. Oh god even with only having these two out I was crying like a big baby ! It honestly is not that bad, it's just not what you wanna feel during those moments... I didn't realize how much energy your body takes just to heal up one small area. I didn't realize how groggy and drained I would be just by having two teeth taken out... I don't have an OB but I have been feeling a lot of itchy and tingling down there.. and then im like.. " I am going to bed." Thanks guys... I am taking it slow, and using warm water and salt quite a bit.. The first night I ended up throwing up, because it was too much for me to take. I am a big baby ! Lololol.
