No Signs

See I don't have any of those things. No headache, flu, aches and pains. If I had an outbreak, esp. an initially one, I should have pain along with those things right??? Pleaes if someone can help me out.

ALL of the other symptoms are secondary... The REAL thing to look out for is the tiny blisters, or cluster of 4 or 5 tiny blisters REALLY close together. In the absence of blisters... All the other symptoms are more likley indicators of something else. (cold, flu, some other infection)

IF YOU HAD AN OUTBREAK, you would see blisters or tiny sores (if the blisters opened) of some kind.

IF you had the tiny blisters or sores, then your next clue would be if you had the other symptoms. (flu-like symptoms, swollen lymph glands, etc)

I would rank the symtoms like this:

1st. Tiny Blisters or tiny sores (if the blisters popped/opened

2nd. Swollen inguinal lymph glands

3rd. flu-like symptoms

With respect tot he flu-like symptoms. before I have an outbreak, I only experience the flu-like symptoms for like... a minute or so... usually a day before I have an outbreak, I have a 'light-headed/nausious spell' that lasts for just a few minutes... maybe 2 or 3...

Outside of that, my only other symptoms I've ever experienced are the tiny tiny blisters and swollen lymph glands..
