hi,
well you can take l-lysine and antivirals together ,that's not a problem, L-lysine don't help me but a lot of people say that it helped them to reduce they OB. For me its better to just avoid argine food like nuts, if I eat nut chocolate I get in the next 4-12 hours an OB.(just chocolate is no problem )...but this deepens on every person , a lot of people don't have any problems with that ,you need to sort that out for yourself, your body will tell you.
The best is to eat a lot of healthy food like veggies (best raw or stewed not cooked )and fish , I usually eat that plus a lot of herbals in my food, self made juice (usually most part is out of veggies and bit fruit) and since I ate chia in the morning ,plus couple cups of sage and thymine tea per day my itching feeling got 80 percent less( I had nearly every day itchy feeling for 2 years )...so not sure what actually helped but I feel much more relaxed..have a good weekend.Judith
