I've had this for 1.5 years now and although the outbreaks aren't as severe, they're still constant and always feel something whether it be a tingly feeling, burning nerve pain, or blisters. Does it eventually get less frequent? I'd be at peace having this disease if it would go away for a few weeks and come back every so often but mine is chronic. Valtrex reduces the severity but not frequency. Just wondered if anyone else had this experience and over time it got better. Thank you.
