I started following the discussions here since I came back from dr visit last week. I had discovered a fissure down my private, so I went in to get it checked. My doctor had me blood tested for IgG (I&II) & IgM. The result came back today with positive for both, but negative on IgM. Now, I am dealing with my emotional break-down at work, while being so confused about my diagnosis and symptoms. I've only had a couple of blisters on my mouth previously ( now i know there were cold-sore), but never had anything near my genital area. So how can I foreseen when I'm about to have a BO next time?

And also, I've seen a lot discussions here on how to disclose in a new relationship, but I'm afraid that they might not work for me the same way since I've been with my bf over a year. I did standard STD screening before we got together, everything came back negative. However, I was NOT acknowledged H is not part of the standard screening, and of course, I might already carry the virus before we started. So I have no clue how I can bring this up...... please advice! So devastated, we just moved in together recently and have tried hard to have a future together.

Ignore the IgM result. However exactly what were results for HSV-1 and HSV-2? Did you have a combo IgG test? If so this only confirms your oral infection.

If you are honest pray first and let love, honesty, trust, and what you two built together have influence. Simultaneously take him to your doctor so they can inform him that it's possible to not know, and use your pass test as proof you are faithful are responsible. Godspeed

Thank you WilsoInAus! I don't remember the exact no. right now, since I dont have the paper with me, but they are pretty high. Yes I did have a combo IgG test, why would it only confirm my oral infection? Thanks again for your help!

Also thanks Terrell for your pray and tips! I did show him my previous test result along with this one, he was trying to calm me down thro the whole conversation, and told me that he trusts me and he is fine with it. BUT, I was little worried when I found out how little he knows about the virus, and trying to give him info by showing some links I got on this site.......some more advice on how to educate both us more to protect him from getting it? thank you thank you!

      Pritelivir: At Last

      By @lw@ys · Posted

      Just another set of supporting articles to a potential release date in 2024 giving hope to sufferers whom the standard of care is currently worthless: Promising Progress in clinical trials for Pritelivir (herpescureadvocacy.com) HSV Treatment Readies for Approval — Precision Vaccinations News

      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
