is this where I introduce myself? I hope so, if not I guess somebody here will tell me.

I happened upon this site while researching for new methods of treating, curing my HSv2 which I've had over 8 years now. i believe it was contracted from my then fiance but since they say it lays dormant before any symptoms i don't know for sure how long its been there. Long Before I met my fiance I had outbreaks on and off but never went to a doctor, instead I thought it was a yeast infection or other and just waited it out for it to go away. Once it left after a few days, everything was back to normal.

It would be years before I considered getting tested sadly due to my own ignorance of the matter at the time and since the outbreaks were so infrequent, maybe 2x annually.

they started getting more severe as I got older and shortly after my engagement they came like every month, like clockwork. That's when I went to a doctor who diagnosed it. With no one else to blame, I blamed my fiance for giving it to me and he denied it but we got married anyway as i was put on medication to keep it under control.

And it has for the most part. I changed from Famvir to Acyclvir and now am only taking them when the onset of symptom arises, I dont' even wait for the outbreak anymore as I've learn to pay attention to the earlier signs.

well that's me in a nutshell, looking forward to reading from everyone and sharing as well.

thank you

Idk if this is or isn't the place to introduce yourself,but welcome to the community. I went through similar stages as you did. And like you as I got older the virus became more recognizable. It can suck sometimes,but this place can really help you. Give it a try and stay positive in your situation.

hey thanks, I will. One thing that has helped is getting to know my body and paying attention to 'onset of symptoms' above all that has stopped the OB's tremendously. It took some time though but I got it down to a sicence.

      Cheaper Amenalief source

      By @lw@ys · Posted

      I have not found a cheaper source for Amenalief, and I've searched high and low. I have a thread called "Pritelivir at Last" you may want to follow as I have a strong belief that It may be available to the public in the summer of 2024 and as I find new info, I update the thread immediately. Now, may I suggest a combination of drugs that several others on this forum have found to be very effective over acyclovir alone? Myself and others have found that taking 40mg of omeprazole (Tagamet @dissolvedo2 ) with 1 gram of Valacyclovir in the morning and 1 gram of Valacyclovir in the evening alone for 3 days have had profound effectiveness at stopping outbreaks in their tracks. I'd like to remind you that I am not a doctor and at best I am personal researcher for what works for me. I @lw@ys share my findings with the forum in the hopes to help others alleviate their suffering. There is another drug combo that I have tried myself as well as others on this forum have tried and that I personally feel is a much more effective for myself. This combo is 1 gram of activated charcoal with 1-gram of valacyclovir in the morning followed by 1 gram of valacyclovir in the evening alone, again for 3 days. I have found that this has reduced my outbreaks to almost only once a year and they are mild at worse. Again, just a reminder that this works for me and may not work for you but I always feel that i have to share this with anyone that cannot get this virus under control so I hope my findings can help those of you who cannot achieve relief with the standard treatment alone. The stronger anti-virals come with risks and if I can help anyone avoid those risks then by all means I feel I have done some good in this world. I only ask that you let me know if either of these suggestions work for you so that I can document it in my notes. Good luck my friend!

      Terrified I have herpes

      By Damian · Posted

      Hi @WhatDidIDo2023, hopefully all is well with you and your significant other and are still together.   Did she develop any other symptoms after you mentioned her getting itchiness? Was it determined what you had was contagious? Most likely developed a fungal disease and caused her a yeast or uti
