It's exhibits no symptoms of an outbreak but the doctor looked at it and said it could be an ulcer or you could of cut yourself. So I'll just take the valtrex twice a day for 3 days. I just gotta read and find the right info. Thanks

He told me to take the valtrex if I wanted to have sex. He never explained anything to me he just said u have hsv2 and since you haven't had an intial breakout you probably won't have one. He never said well if you have an outbreak take this valtrex twice a day for 3 days. My doc gave me nothing useful to help me so that's why I posted. I was under the impression that there were different doses for outbreaks. I don't know anything about what I have. Ask my ob why he down played it and said I'd probably never have a outbreak. But I went to the er. I'm good.

So I have this one.open sore ans.I'm.trying to figure out if its a liason or a bump that I irritated while wiping myself. Its only one and it doesn't hurt. I wasn't given any meds for an outbreak cuz my ob said i would never get an outbreak. I do however have 500 mg valtrex just invade I wanted to have sex. I don't know what it is and I don't know what to use on it if it is a liaison. I guess I feel it cuz it's there but it really doesn't bother me. I have no insurance so what's something I can buy if it is an outbreak to be on the safe side.

I guess I need to start taking my anti virals. I don't have outbreaks but if it lessens the shedding I'm all for that.

Everything to me seems like an outbreak. Even though my doctor high suggests that I will most likely never have a outbreak since I've had it for awhile with no initial outbreak. But I don't believe that. I have this aching pain in the joint between my pelvic area and thigh and it won't go away. I'm constantly looking down there for lesions or somethings. If I get an itch I think I'm about to have an outbreak. I really don't believe my doctor. I need a doctor that will give me accurate information about H. My obgyn was talking about the history of H but really didn't say much about me. All I know is I have H and that's it. I'm trying to read as much as possible but i need to know what I should expect in that I've never had an outbreak. I'm really lost and freaking out more than I should. Where do I go? I've researched a doctor at MUSC that has some experience in H I think I need to go to him. I think he is an infectious disease physician. I'm really lost

I will research it more

HSV2. My swab was negative and my blood test was positive

I just found out I have H last month. I had sex with this guy 3 times already before I knew. He did however give me chlaymdia and I told him about it before I knew of the H. Well he went and got tested for the chlaymdia. I'm not sure how that turned out but we still talk and I'm really feeling him. Sex came up last night and I'm so scared of losing him and I don't know how to tell him. Should I tell him to ask for a test for H because I probably has it when he and I had sex. We had sex in January and I wonder if t could have been him that gave me H but with my index being 18.0 I highly doubt it was him. What do I do because I don't want to lose him as a friend?

So if I got in a serious relationship and we decided to go condomless it's a good idea to use the coconut oil and maintain to take my antivirals

I will buy me a jar to have in stock

Really

Ok that's reassuring and I have HSV2

I've never had an outbreak so everything makes me paranoid. I don't know what to expect so I'm try to stock up on as many things as possible. Even though my obgyn said its less then likely that I will ever have an outbreak since my index was 18.0. I've had it for awhile and haven't experienced any outbreaks.

I read somewhere that a woman used coconut oil to put on her outbreak and it healed in like 3 days. Have any of you heard of that and does this sound possible?

Where can I read up on the HIV herpes connection?

Hey. I'm 29 and I'm in north Charleston,SC. I was diagnosed last month and I'm still trying to figure it all out. I'm trying to figure out how to live life and be happy with herpes. I'm just want to talk to anyone that will listen and give good advice and words of encouragement. The hardest part I have to deal with is not giving blood to my only child if it ever comes to that. I'm really trying and just want someone to talk too. And I have HSV2

No I didn't disclose. I told him he gave me chlamydia which he did but I never told him about the herpes he apologized for the chlamydia and we still talk but he doesn't know. My best friend knows but I don't think she really understands that I can't help but talk about it because I need to understand it.

I'm just so freaked because it seems my obgyn didn't give me any useful information. He said well you've never had an outbreak so you don't have to worry about one. He suggested the antiviral only if I wanted to have sex. I read all these things and they say stress can trigger an outbreak. My sister has herpes but she's younger and I feel so shame to talk about it with her. I've decided to take it to my grave but I feel like I'm going crazy. I decided a career and my son will be it for me. I don't even want to create a life right now. Should the person I had unprotected sex with in the past couple of months go get tested as well.

I wondering wouldn't my doctor have told me back when I had blood work done in 2014. Is that something specific you test for does a blood test come back with everything possible.

I recently found out I have herpes. I went to the er and they called two days later and said I had chlamydia. I went to my obgyn to rechecked to make sure it was gone because I had a lot of discharge. Well they did a nuswab and a blood test. The chlamydia was gone but I had herpes. The nuswab came back negative but my blood test came back positive for hsv 2. I asked what the results said and the nurse told me the index was 18.0. I'm not sure if that breaks down into another number. But I never had an outbreak. I was celibate for 3 years then had sex in August and September. Then again with someone new in January. I didn't find out about the herpes until last month. I get to a point where I feel im ok then I think about it and feel like I'm having a mini panic attack. I haven't come to terms yet and I don't know how to live. Help me.
