I’m sorry to hear that your husband cheated on you. Are you guys going to counseling and trying to make it work? If my husband ever cheated on me I don’t think I could stay with him. I do understand that every relationship is different. Have you talked to your doctor about any of this? Make sure you don’t have something else going on down there because it’s not always going to be due to herpes. What is your doctor saying about all of this?

Thanks for sharing your personal info girly. I admire your wit and happiness…I am bitter and sad my husband decided to give me this ‘gift’ without my knowledge and through his infidelity and have a hard time with it especially since I am the one who suffers immensely from outbreaks all for his 2 nights of fun. Not to mention I’ve taken valtrex and omg it made it way worse I think I am allergic :( I think it sucks he’s only had it happen twice in the past year and a half and I’ve had it about 15 times ugh :(

Hi Chris. Yeah, it’s probably not a good idea to post your cell phone number on a public blog. Why don’t you join our online support group. You are going to get a lot more help if you posted your concerns over there than if you e-mailed with only one person. At least this way if you posted on the online support group you would get responses from lots of people and then could weight your options.

Hello: Anyone who needs further support with herpes or other STDs, try visiting the site, http://www.Yoshi2me.com. Click on H-Pals and choose a state/city for one of us to contact you with support, links, answers to questions you may have. Itis non-profit!! I do hope you are all aware there is a new one-day treatment of Famvir. Go to http://www.Famvir.com No, I am not a rep for them! :) I’m an H-Pal from Florida, Melbourne area if you want to go to the site. I slso highly recommend Zovirax ointment for faster healing and lessening of the pain of the first day or two of an outbreak. At the Valtrex.com site, you can print out coupons worth up to $30. on your Rx. This suppressant works well. Best to all,
Carol
P.S. Did you know that too much exposure to sunlight…lying on the beach for hours..can trigger an outbreak? Also, stress and lack of sleep for several days. You rule your Herpes…do not let it rule your life. Btw, on the Valtrex site, there are links, one of which is “how to tell” someone you have “it.”

That’s true. My blood results come back on Monday and they will tell me if my case is acute (contracted recently from 1 night stand girl) or chronic (somebody else, somewhen once). I did get a prescription for acyclovir and it’s really cheap which is good. I read all this stuff online but I really want to speak with somebody who has it. I have pesonal questions and it would be nice to talk to somebody for a few minutes. I put my email address in the field before I posted. Angela, if u could email me I’d appreciate it. I’d give my cell number here but that might not be the best idea. Thanks.

If Valtrex is too expensive for you OR your insurance will not cover it OR you do not have insurance then stick with Acyclovir.

It’s true that she may not have known that she had herpes, if she has herpes. But at the same time, maybe you had herpes all along too and didn’t know it?

That’s a nice story. It’s good that some people out there would still tell their soon-to-be partners about herpes. I, myself have just been clinically diagnosed with genital herpes yesterday – I’m still experiencing my initial and suppossedly worse “outbreak”. What’s worse is that my “maker” was from a one night stand and I had the damn condem… Anyway she didn’t tell me and now I have it. After “thanking her” for her little gift, she said she didn’t know she had it, which could be possible, but whatever the case may be, it doesn’t change my current situation. I’ll be straight forward with girls from now on – that is if I even sex again… No sex drive whatsoever. An why is valtrex so damn expensive??

I think you should break things off with him. He sounds like a controlling jerk.

I found out not to long ago and as soon as I left the doctor I called my boyfriend and told him. At first he was like, ok whatever. He asked me questions about it and that was pretty much it.
About a week went by before I spoke to him again. To make a long story short, he used my diagnosis as a way to take advantage of me, making me feel guilty. Telling me I owe him. What should I do? he says he went to the doctor and that he has it now. I don’t believe him because it took a week for my results to come back and he says he got his the same day.
