I'm in the Philadelphia south nj area . Would love to find a specialist I can't take much more !

Thanks for the positive . But there has really been no positive coming from these outbreaks. And I doubt I will ever be grateful for this . I want it gone forever. But I will try my hardest to be strong. It just seems very heightened this year for some reason. Also feels like I have something internally like inside vagina/cervjx . Wondering if there is a blister up there too. I just have had issues on n off n my Gyno seems to think it's atypical herpes symptoms. I just want a break.

Thank you. This is a terrible disease it has impacted my life in so many ways. I'm trying so hard to stay positive . I just hope this one doesn't last as long as the last one and I hope my bf didn't get it . I've had this for over 3 years . Seems like this past year has been the worst and I don't know why!!!

So I'm on 1000mg of valtrax a day and it seems Im getting obs every 6mths. I am so disgusted by this. I literally feel like I just recovered from my last OB in July. Which seemed to still tingle n hurt for months after the OB healed . Anyway my bf knows I have herpes. We had sex all weekend without a condom. Yesterday was Sunday . We had sex . And today I notice a blister in the same exact spot as July. It's small n doesn't seem to be open yet . I just applied tea tree oil and will be doubling up on my valtrax . However... What are the chances that he got it? He has hsv1 which I heard supposedly causes him to have more antibodies to fight this. I've been so broken by this disease. I try not to let it get me down but how can I live a normal life in constant fear and discomfort? Please help me Im so saddened by this . And I hope I didn't transmit it to him. I understand he knows the risk. But we all know how Relationships are hard enough ... I don't need to feel subconsciously resented for this. And I hope the tea tree oil stops it. Can the combo of tea tree and valtrax stop the bluster from fully erupting ? Or once it starts does it have to go through the whole process ?

Stopped estrogen cream actually made the dull ache WORSE . I also thoroughly examined down there and see NOTHING. No skin tag or anything. Put a little lidocaine on the left labia minora. .. And now feel better . However I still feel a little pressure /weirdness. I don't know . Left message on Gyno voicemail that the estrogen cream didn't work and made it worse . Anyway! I guess I'll go spend more money n get a 2nd opinion . What a pain :/

Hey I just had a pap that came back negative for hpv :)

Thanks guys! She also have me lidocaine cream and tested for yeast. I just feel confused . I should have spoken up when I was there but I'm always so nervous at the Gyno ... Basically traumatized bc of hsv so I just took her word for it and rolled out. It's irritating me a little but at the same time I'm extra aware of what's going on down there bc of the hsv ... So I wonder if it's more in my head ... But I know what I feel..: oh well hope it goes away soon I haven't felt normal in awhile. I'd like some time to actually feel normal down there . ;(

Hey guys. I am HSV2+ I am currently not experiencing an outbreak ,however I had a weird feeling down there on the left side almost felt like it was up IN my vagina on the left wall. Went to gyno yesterday my nurse practitioner was rather fast and rushed me out of there. Told me I had a skin tag and it looked a little inflamed. Gave me estrogen cream for it. It is not as uncomfortable as HSV OB but I know it is there and it makes me feel uncomfortable... almost like an itch I can't scratch (except it isnt an itch, more a dull ache) Has anyone experienced this b4 and will the estrogen cream even help????? I am only 31 years old why would I need estrogen cream? Also can this type of hormone cream cause an OB? I just went off the pill.... not sure if that is the reason why the skin tag developed in the first place. I dunno. COnfused and aggravated.... will never go back to that NP again felt very rushed. Just looking to see if anyone on here has had a similar experience . Thank you

Hey Corissa. Seems like I have the same thing going on. It is intermittent and the pain differs /varies. Sometimes it is a pinching / stinging, sometimes a tingle, and sometimes it is sore. Some days are better than others. My sore was healed and gone by the beginning of September and it is now November and I still feel these feelings. I believe it to be post herpetic neuralgia, Seems like that is something that isn't diagnosed quite often but I don't know any other way to describe/ diagnose this. I am on suppressive therapy and take supplements. It has really gotten me down and depressed. Herpes is bad enough but I don't want it to linger this long! Also this is about my 3rd year with HSV2, I don't understand why this time was so different. If any of you have ANY similar experiences and can shed some light / offer me some hope it would really make me feel better. It definitely isn't as bad as it was but it is SLOWLY getting a little better, I think? Hang in there .. not to mention that now I am getting small pimples /cysts on the other side of my vagina ... My mom says she has them too and they are nothing... but it is so annoying to constantly have something to worry about down there. I want to have children one day but I am terrified I will have bad OBs during pregnancy and the pain wil be worse ... Trying to stay strong. praying hard. Happy Friday. :)

All I do is look at my hoo ha too! It's so annoying. I literally don't know if I'm having an ob at this point or it's just a small pimple /cyst. So strange bc I've only had outbreaks on my right side n now I'm noticing small whiteheads /cysts on my left side and it's freaking me out. They don't hurt , maybe just a little tender to the touch .... Anyone else get these ? I think I'm just more involved with what's going on down there bc of the herpes . Annoying and gives me anxiety bc I wonder if it could be just a small outbreak? Who knows . Anyway I went off birth control and taking my valtrex and supplements daily. Hoping to stay ob free .

I was diagnosed hsv2 ... Could this one be a new infection of hsv1? And that's why my body reacted this way? My ex had hsv 1 on mouth .

Been to 2 gynos ... They said it could linger sometimes . Wondering if there was nerve damage. Don't know how something so little could cause nerve damage. Very annoying . Especially when there is nothing there except a scar.

Dancer , I've been tested and just got a clear pap. Not sure why I'm experiencing this .

So my vage has simply not fully recovered from an ob that started in July. There is nothing there , no sore nothing. Everything has fully healed . Except I've had twinges of tingles , pinching , and a dull ache in that area intermittently since my sore has healed . It's almost November !!!! Has anyone experienced this ? I take 1gram of valtrax a day. Is 2 grams a day too much? Also take a pre natal, b complex , red marine algae (3/once a day) , and a probiotic , and zinc . Any thoughts ? Should I switch it up to 800mg 2x a day of generic acyclovir ? (Instead of once a day valtrex) I have a script for that too. I've had herpes about 3 years now . Last ob was small . 2 small pimples but has left me with this post pain that I've never had before . Thoughts ?/ similar experiences ?

Need more posts like this . Hope u have a happy and healthy pregnancy . God bless

Thank u inka. I'll try it .

It's not excruciating pain . Just a nuisance and uncomfortable at times . Makes me think about having herpes all the time and not good for my anxiety. I am praying n trying to stay strong n heal . I was just hoping someone had a similar experience n could shed some light on the topic .

2 ob/gyn nurse practitioners... Got my annual pap everything was fine ... They basically said it's just taking long to heal. But that doesn't really help me... I just wish there was someone out there who has experienced this and could tell me it's gonna end ... One practitioner suggested lyrica if it keeps up... Very sad and drained all around. I know , supposed to stay positive but I'm scared to death i will have another ob in this spot someday and it will get worse . I know I shouldn't think of what could happen n live in the moment but I'm realistic person and I feel like I need to mentally prepare myself.

So my outbreak has been gone for about 2mths now. I still have a small red scar in my genitals that I feel stinging / throbbing / gnawing (I feel it , it's very annoying- don't know how to describe it fully) anyway, I can't really find much online about this post irritation and scar from an ob ... The only thing that matches it is shingles . Is it possible that my second blister was a shingles blister ? Can herpes cause this ? I'm so confused bc I never had this lingering sensation after any ob and I've had herpes for over 3 years . Please help . This is affecting my life I'm drained and depressed . I take 1g of valtrex everyday . I posted about this before ... I've been to 2 drs and no one can seem to help. Very sad and frustrated .

Ugh I hear ya .... I haven't been diagnosed with vulvudynia ... But I've been a mess since my last ob in July. After the ob actually healed it left me with a scar and the scar actually still hurts. I feel it everyday . When I'm walking , sitting a certain way etc... This never happened to me b4 I pray that it goes away. I worry about the next outbreak and if it will leave me with this same pain again and I too am full of anxiety. Also, hve been experiencing itching. More of an intermittent internal feeling itching . I feel that since my last ob I've been hypersensitive to ever feeling down there and my anxiety is off the chains . I hope this scar and the tender soreness i feel with it goes away. Let me know how u make out at drs . Hang in there

This is the first time this happened to me. Longest most annoying ob ever ... Other than the first ,... The spot it was in is just terrible . Walking was the worst . Thank God it's over with and I pray I don't get another one like that ever again. Thank you for all ur help and support everyone! I ordered the aloe cream that dancer suggested . I have high hopes for it . I used neosporin pain relief cream as directed by my Gyno ... Didn't feel much relief . It's not bad just an annoyance . A physical and mental painful reminder , if you will.

I ordered it straight from your link ... I hope it helps :)

Thanks love :)

Ps- I've had quite a few outbreaks in the 3+ years I've had this and never experienced this before.

So it has been about a month since the healing started and I began to feel relief from a pretty bad outbreak. The sore itself was so small but I think the main issue was the location . Anyway, it left a small red scar and I still feel tender / sore in that area at times . Anyone have this before and if so what is the best way for the pain to finally go away for good and finally HEAL!!!!?!? I'm on suppresives and take pre Natals, vitamin c , and a few other supplements that are good for herpes. The sore itself has been gone for over a month , why do I still feel it . It's giving me anxiety . 2 diff gynos checked it and said just to give it time. But I feel like some days are worse than others . I just don't want to think about it anymore . I hate that I can still feel it. I know , it could be worse but it's had ample time to heal . I don't understand . :/
