@lollyann76 thank you for your response, I also felt like i was dying and freaked myself even more out so just went to the clinic and had them check and have them proscribed me something so it wouldn't worsen by the time I got my blood work and swob back! I'm thankful to received the medication just can't wait till it kicks in and I can get back to normal life ..

@surfsup thank you for everything ! I will know once he is tested and the results come back! In meantime thankful for your time and everyone else's :) just trying to remain calm and know it's going to be okay !!!

Hi @lollyann76 ! Thank you for messaging me , I am my first ever break out the pain hurst and I'm sick flu like symptoms are the worst I lay in bed and researching and reading all I can do! Did you have a break out down below ? If so what did you do for the pain and what medication did you take I'm on my first day and I just want this all to go away, I'm actually thinking of continueinh to talk medcation still just so this doesn't happen again ): ! I know i need to build my immune system but I just don't want to go threw this pain and feelings again , does it get better ? I heard the first is the worst ? Is that true ? If you love with herpes now does your partner have it ? I have sommnay questions If your up for talking... thank you in advance

Yes just waiting for it to kick in and do its thing! If you and your partner both have it isn't it more likely to have another outbreak? Could this be my only outbreak and I can still have sex and not get another outbreak? How does that all work?

Aww well we are different situations but I guess similar in a way! I'm glad yours cleared up and you are living good , and so happy to hear one outbreak! I pray the same for me! I don't know if your aloud to say this but iv never been one to turn to medication as I am all about the herb haha If you know what I mean ! But I know I must take this medication to help me and to Heal my body! I just guess I can only pray I only have one outbreak and continue to stay strong. I think I read that you live and Thialand !! I live in Florida ! Lol crazy we can talk around the world and I'm jus so happy you message me back I appreciate it so much deffintly has calmed me down!

Thank you! We will find out soon enough if he has it until then we are both okay and everything's going to be alright we are here for each other and that's all that matters! Either way who gave it to who! && I'm sure iv had a cold sore before during cold either or in the hot sun to long while younger I'm not prone to them or get them a lot but yes I have had them before! I feel as though everyone has had a cold sore once before ! && yes I usually am but this has me down and out I just want everything to be okay. I know it says you can live a normal and healthy life have babies and do everything normal.. I just want someone's else story to know it's okay and we will be fine. Just the resurrance of it all.. cause this is very overwhelming.. to say the least. You only had one break out ? How long did it last ? What did you do for the pain what did you do really were you sad and depressed how are you feeling now as how long has it been?

Hi @HikingGirl I am so new to this, recently Went to my Gyno for what I thought was a cut but turns out herpes... I couldn't wait for my blood test which I go tomorrow so I went to a urgent clinic and they proscribed me medication for herpes by loooking at it... I am taking acyclovir 800 4X day 5-7 days just started today and get my blood results tomorrow! I currently am going threw the flu like symptoms and down below I have read and research so much but it just feels better to talk to someone who's been threw simply what I'm going threw, if you don't mind being a friend and sharing anything with me to resurre me I'm going to be okay and that it's common and just be someone to talk to I would appreciate it ! Thank you !

Yeah no medication you must be the lucky one.. I feel this break out is the worst thing ever and I don't every want to go threw it again that's why I said that I would continue taking the meds to prevent another but I understand why I shouldn't relie on them.. just don't want to go threw this pain and sadness and depression again.. I'm usually very up beat happiest girl around... but since this just not the same I'm trying to tell myself I'm going to be okay but I guess it's hard when everything is just so unknown... & yes he will be getting checked very soon, but for some reason I feel as though he might not have it I pray he doesn't. But if I have it is it more then likely he has it too? My fingers are so crossed for you and pray you never go threw a breakout.. I have read a lot and some people only have one out break... but idk I guess I'm just worried.. Smoothes do sounds good about now :)! &&& soup to actually I might get chicken noodle ! Thank you so much for continuing to talk it really helps me calm down about everything going on.

The medication I'm on is ACYCLOVIR 800 MG 4X day for 5-7 days..

Yes they took a look down there and in my mouth as we did oral after sex, she says she doesn't see anything in my mouth or anything but I still think I have it there too, ( paranoid ) maybe but they took a look and prescribed me and I just started today. When I went to my doctor last wee day what I thought was for a cut or my vagina she took a swob and I also did blood test the next day! I just couldn't wait for the results as it's a weekend and there closed so I went to MD now for my symptoms and explained to them I was freaking out and wanted to catch it now rather then later. My boyfriend is deffintly going to get tested , he just doesn't have insurance so we may go to MD now for him as well. He doesn't seem as worried but we are deffintly going to go. Yes he's very supportive and I just can't thank him enough for that. Yes is there any foods that maybe I should be eating I know healthy but I just don't seem hungry and nothing seems appealing, I just ate a yogurt with some strawberries and bananas.. for breakfast and took my first pill of and I have to take 4 of them daily this will be my first day taking them. If you don't mind me asking, what medication you take and if you continue your medication or only take one with an outbreak... I personally rather take a pill everyday to prevent this from happening again as I am in the worst pain and feeling in my intirer 22 years of living. I just can't believe all this to be honest I guess I'm still in such shock.. ): Again I am so thankful for people like you to be talking me threw something like this it makes me feel not alone and that someone is there for me!

Hi @surfsup thank you so much for your reply! I am currently waiting on my blood results from my Gyno but went to MD now for the fevers and freaking out myself even more and they gave me medication for herpes simplex so I don't know exactly which one I have yet. I go to the doctor tomorrow for my blood test results, I'm praying for the best, but it is what it is. Currently having the worst breakout ever! My first one ever and iv never felt like this before in my life, very sick. I just feel like I'm itchy everywhere feet legs back shoulders eyes mouth, I think I'm just freaking myself out more then I need to but I can't help it. I just feel like complete dirt. I just pray it gets better all I can do I guesss. I currently have been with my lover my boyfriend for 4 years! I am guessing I have had the virus and no breakouts until now.. as many people have the virus and never know they have it, although I go to my doctors more then the most and get tested frequently they don't test for herpes unless you have symptoms, ( I guess so you don't freak out ).. I'm not sure but just makes me unweary. I have told my boyfriend and he is so supportive and tells me everything's going to be alright and to not worry ( that helps but I need people who have this let me know I'm going to Be okay) Feeling very sad depressed emotional, just glad to know I'm not the only one and that's there's millions of people facing this everyday. That helps, but still I feel so scared, once I know more I guess I won't feel as scared. Maybe worry less too.. I hope for my stress sake. I have been stressing which I guess makes it worse. Anyway I guess I'm just freaking myself out more then inneed to any advice on how to handle this I have been just laying around not eating which I have to start eating today as I have medication to take! I just have no appetite at all, which I know is not good. Thank you again for wrighting and listening I appreciate it so much !

I recently was diagnosed with herpes simplex, I have it on my vagina which I thought was to be a cut From rough sex turns out it's not. My body as been on a world wind it feels like, I'm very sick I very really get sick But when I do it the worst. Currently just received my first medication and today is the day I start my full dose.

Anyway I'm just very scared and nervous I feel like I am dying I know a lot of people have this virus and it's common but I'm honestly freaking out and really need some help If anyone can please talk to me and calm me down a bit about it all please I would greatly appreciate it so much!
