Hello all!
First post! I am currently on suppressive therapy for oral HSV-1, 800 mg once a day. I have gone 4 years without an ob (and four years without knowing this site existed!!). But of recently, I have had 2 obs in 6 weeks. Has my acyclovir stopped working? Am I immune to it? Do I need to up my dose? I have caught myself taking more because Ive tricked my mind into thinking I need more.
I have a good diet, supplement with lysine, I do not smoke (I used to, but recently cut it out completely) and I drink occasionally.
I forgot for a while that I even had hsv and then these two have been a reminder that I do.
Im not ashamed of it, I have accepted it more and more after browsing the site. Glad to know you guys are out there!
Would love to hear some input/ answers to my questions!
Thanks!
