Need info asap back to back ob's

[Sick of this]

Hello...I'm new to this forum but not new to Herpes...I've had cold sores since I was a kid...assuming I got it from my mother as she dealt with them for years...But I was infected with Genital Herpes in my early 20's..It was a parting gift from my X husband who always felt it necessary to share himself with everyone Anyways..I've always just taken the ob's in stride since they only seem to pop up once or twice a year...But now...years and years later...for some reason I am getting one ob after another...and at the moment I have 3 ob's at once...two in the genital area and one on my bottom lip......This has been a frequent event for over 2 months now...I have no idea what has changed but I'm a little scared and not sure what to do..I've tried talking to my doc about it and all they say is stress brings them on...The only thing stressing me out are these frequent ob's....Has this happened with anyone else here? Or does anyone here please have any info on why this may be happening...am I dying or what?...I've had a lot of blood work done for other things recently and all my levels are good...so I dont know what direction to look. HELP

Thanks for your response blue...I'm not taking any meds of vitamins...I have searched my brain over and over again, trying to figure why the change after so many years...and trust me I cant seem to find any info about frequent of multiple outbreaks or causes for online...Its literally like I am the only one with herpes this is happening to

Sorry to hear you are having such a hard time. I assure you, you are not the only one with back to back outbreaks. I have them constantly, but I am a stressful person. Outbreaks are usually triggered by stress, illness, lack of sleep, diet, even hormone imbalance. This virus affects everyone differently, so finding your triggers can be tricky. Just try to stay healthy and exercise. It's good for mind, body and soul and might help to quiet things down for you. Hope this helps.

Thank you so much for your reply SheIsBlue...it was comforting just to hear someone say that its not just me..I've had this virus for years and years and I am just now starting to actually fear it....
