2 months. 2 outbreaks.

How’s that for the start of the first year! I Started with prodromal symptoms. I believe mine are muscle spasms that start in the calf and butt whole (almost an orgasm feeling) then the spasms are everywhere. The spasms are now generally in my calf and thigh now that I’ve had the actual outbreak. I’m looking for Patterns. I started with flu like symptoms with the first outbreak(that’s obviously not going to happen again) and muscle spasms so that part’s definitely reoccurring. I have a neurologist appointment next Tuesday to see if something neurological is going on because the doctor doesn’t see a link between the two? Today I had them check my butt because it was soar and she said yes it’s an outbreak. She cultured it and said she thought it was very soon to be having one but that she def. does think it is my second outbreak. We talked about Taking the medicine for a few days and see how things go after that. If this keeps reoccurring we will talk about suppression and the possibility of being on the medicine long term. This second outbreak was so much less painful than the first which I am super grateful for. Those of you on your first outbreak, it will get better!!!!!!!! Now I know from experience!!!!

@Ohhey143, Was diagnosed late last year and reading your post reminded me that I also experienced those spasms "back there" in the beginning lol.  Weird but I guess that happens with H.  Anyhow, glad to hear that your outbreaks are headed in the right direction.

@New2GH I hope so! This is the second one and a fraction of pain than the first. How frequent/painful have yours been?
