Thank you for elaborating on your answer and clearing things up for me. Nice analogy!
I'm way beyond the denial of this fact in my life, and I have nothing to be ashamed because my new partner in life, who has HSV-1 herself, has no problem with my GH and she is all that matters to me. All we're trying to do is how to continue with our full and passionate sexual lives before we discovered our conditions.
In the meanwhile, while trying to keep up with the latest news and discoveries on the disease, I've come across this Ozone therapy which has been mostly used in European countries, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand to battle tough diseases like cancer has shown positive results (read: cure, eradicate, gone!) in patients with herpes or other infectious diseases as well. It's a powerful toxin which is infused with your own blood (right amount, which is the key to successful eradication and tailored to each individual's condition) and injected back to you to reach the virus inside the nerve system cells. Ozone and Oxygen therapies fight diseases at the cellular level. In the US this practice has only recently begone to gain attention. It is expensive, the insurance companies won't cover it, takes 20 minutes for one session/week, and up to anywhere from 3-12 weeks depending on the individuals. I've heard in Europe the price has dropped down to about 200 Euro/session and the claims range from cured to no OBs over long periods of time.
I've read in some of the USA posts that those who can afford it, buy their own Ozone infusion gear to keep the cost of doctor visits down! There aren't many doctors in each of the states who know or are experts in Ozone therapy
Look up "Autohemotherapy", "Intravenous Ozone Therapy", or "Oxygen therapy".
