hehe, depends on what's going on.  Sometimes this site is flourishing and other times it chills.

 

Like just then, I meant to send that message but had to do some stuff and here I am back making another message.

What's going on? :)

"benefit" is gained by those who persist.  This site has been very helpful in some aspects and very frustrating in others.   

You have people from all different walks of life getting a virus that affects everyone differently and everyone is an expert from THEIR point of view.

So take everything with a grain of salt.  

Depends on what type of help you want.  I'm a moderator on another website but I enjoy reaching out on multiple fronts.  I'm not a gigantic fan of antiviral prescription meds, as if this is for the rest of my life then  I want to get through it sustainably and naturally through diet, lifestyle and herbs.   Sure, if you have some encephalitis going on then take the antivirals.  Everything depends on the level of severity.   I just had an outbreak the past 2 days that if had happened months ago I would've been a mess.  But I know my options of what to do and am able to control things they best I can.   I observe my lifestyle choices and how they make me feel and adjust accordingly.  This past week was just a very stressful one. 

 

But I will say what I dislike on this SUPPORT forum, is how inappropriate one of the members gets with me, claiming I don't have HSV and taking up space in people's posts to start a tennis match to go back n' forth.   Maybe if the nature of this forum was more of a lower grade forum with vulgar language and topics do I expect "Trolls" to be a thing.  But to have a feeling of being trolled on a herpes support group... I'm better about it, but it's not worth battling someone who has their own struggle and their own reality.   Our personal reality is enough to deal with.

Hi Chris...welcome to the site.  The form is a great place for support and options...but I haven't had much luck meeting others in my area to connect with if that is what you are hoping for...however, I'm from a pretty small town in Ont.

Enjoy the site...looking forward to chatting.  LL

      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
