Thanks, Dancer.. I am a nurse and you taught me something!!

Thank you Dancer and Herry, for your replies. I am post menopausal and a nurse; however, I am not familiar with the FC2 Female condom or where I can purchase such things. Can you help me with that?? Thanks for helping this Newbie.

My "shingles" diagnosis years ago is Herpes2. I was put on Valtrex and then Acyclovir; with both medications I got episodes of tachycardia (high pulse rate) and so am using nothing. I am very sensitive to medications. I tried L-Lysine and got "woozy" even if taking it at night. Now, I am considering a relationship with a person who knows I have Herpes; however, I know from reading on this site that the antiviral decreases outbreaks and shedding. I usually have monthly outbreaks. Has ANYONE ELSE had this problem, and if so, any suggestions? Thank you.
