[Came across this interesting post.....check it out]

Hey guys,

 

I've been reading this blog for years, even emailed the writer with my dating issues. Please read this! It's not your typical website it's REAL talk. I came across a topic about dating with stds and he talks about herpes and how it changes nothing.

 

So please just keep an open mind when reading it like I said its real talk and not sugar coated one bit.

[I am new to having herpes! My story yo!]

Awesome this made me smile :) @wordup

[I can't be the only one...]

Yeah my doctor said ill do suppressive therapy for two more months! I've had H since September as well can't wait for my body to get with the program. I take one zinc, two vitamin C, three echinacea and a multi vitamin everyday. So I'm trying keep up with this and hopefully that two months will be one month instead @YogaJ12

I'll ask my doctor about famvir today. The thing is it's the time of the month so I try to wear panty liners instead of pads. Not a big fan of tampons :/ I do the commando thing as well as the cotton underwear when I have to. I live with my sister and niece so one bathroom don't wanna contaminate the tub. I already dodge the question of y I'm taking pills everyday.

 

Thanks so much for the links I'll check them out.

Unfortunately I don't live in the states I live in the Bahamas and my medical insurance isn't the best. Valtrex here costs $164 for a month supply. I just don't see the point in taking it everyday if every other week I'm having an outbreak....I've never heard about goldenseal @seeker

@ihaveittoo

Ok I'll ask I'm actually going to her tomorrow morning. Is Acyclovir more expensive than valtrex? Something's gotta give!

 

[My 1st Herpes Disclosure]

Thanks so much @WCSDancer2010

 

I always read the stories and I think it's awesome that you take time out to respond to everyone.

 

Needless to say that friendship may be getting terminated. He saw me out with a coworker and got upset because he thought I was on a date. So far from it! So it's starting to get complicated because he doesn't want to be with me last time I checked but he gets upset if he sees with another guy. Men :/ can't live with em or without em.

 

Hugs :)

I've been taking valtrex daily why am I still having constant outbreaks. :( I don't get it I thought it was suppose to suppress the virus but my outbreaks haven't stopped at all. This just sucks. I also take vitamins (vitamin c, zinc, multi vitamin syrup,echinacea). What else can I do? I think my panty liner may have caused it, it's not scented or anything. But I guess the layers of clothes may have triggered it( panty liner, panty, stockings, work pants) I can't get around not wearing stockings or pants it's my uniform. Help! I just want it to stop. Mine are painful and itch sometimes to the point where I can't sleep. I can feel the virus is still present every morning I wake up I have to blow my nose ugh. It's bin like that for a month now.

 

Any suggestions would be helpful. Should I continue with valtrex or switch ?

[My 1st Herpes Disclosure]

So I was diagnosed with HSV 2 last year September. I really thought my life was over, I cried everyday and every where. I experienced OB after OB and they were horrible. My giver is no longer in my life but looking back on everything that happened I could safely say he knew he had this and just didn't care about me. This site has really made everything better for me. I read many stories and I disclosed quicker than I thought I would and it wasn't so bad. :)

 

I didn't just meet this guy I've known him for almost two years. We started talking about a relationship right before Christmas and things were going great. One night we were out talking and I jus did it! Please know I was terrified shaking and I couldn't look at him afterwards. He did leave shortly after since I dropped such an unexpected bomb. Needless to say the next day he called. Turns out he's a big germaphobe! Seriously killed me if I had known I wouldn't have disclosed to him at all. We have had ups and downs with him just trying to grasp the situation. I try to educate him a lil bit everytime we talk, but I don't think anything sexual will happen which is fine. I'm still getting to learn my body and get my outbreaks under control. I would never want to pass it to anyone.

 

I'm just happy he didn't run for the hills. He's still in my life being a friend Which is what I need right now honestly. If it wasn't for this site I don't think I would of disclosed at all. Thanks everyone!

[Zovirax/acyclovir cream]

So even while on suppressive therapy I'm having outbreaks still and my doctor gave me a small tube of Zovirax cream to apply to the sores. Has anyone else ever used this cream? Does it help?

[H Buddies, unite!]

Hey everyone so happy I found this site. I would love to have a buddy no preference. My name is Tash I'm 26 and I was diagnosed in September with HSV2. It's been really hard trying to cope and the only person I talk to is my doctor. I live in the Caribbean it doesn't matter if your near I just really need someone to talk to......I'm currently on suppressive therapy because I had outbreak after outbreak due to being stressed. Even taking valtrex I still feel like I'm gonna have an outbreak. Hope to hear from someone!
