So the other day, I started my OB. At first I thought is was a combination yeast/urinary tract infection. I went to the gyn and she told me what was what. She prescribed 800mg Ibuprofin, valacyclovir, and lidocaine. When I got home from picking up the prescription, I started my period. Of course. It's so painful down there that I can't use tampons. I'm using a pad, but it really hurts. I don't know what to do, I feel disgusting. My mom's been calling and texting asking about the Dr but I don't know what to say. I don't know how to tell her that I have herpes. I don't know what I'm going to do. Will I ever be able to have a sex life? I'm on my second day of medication and I'm a lot better than I was yesterday or even last night. The problem is, the first few days having my OB, I couldn't lie down, stand, or sit with out severe pain. I cried. And going to the bathroom was the worst! I had to bite my arm to keep from screaming. Will it be like this every time? Also, will I need the same medication every time? How often should I expect outbreaks? Once a month? I don't know if I could handle this. I'm 21 and I got herpes from a coworker I drunkenly slept with. I didn't use protection and I will NEVER make that mistake again. It was the first and last time. I don't know if he knows he has herpes, because I feel like if he knew he would have never risked going bareback like that, even when drunk. Should I tell him? But at the same time, I'm so awkward about this type of stuff I don't know if I could do it.
