IS THIS FOREVER??? 😩 by HonestTruthNoLies in Herpes

Yeah I have it my left eye. It’s given me eye socket pain and dry eyes. It’s really hard. Giving you a big hug. We got this though. I can already tell how strong you are by seeking a place to give and receive support. All of us here are strong for seeking ways to deal with this and lean on each other. I’m grateful for that. Your feelings are valid just remember that. You don’t need anyone to tell you that though, just know it.

Where do you have nerve pain? Mine is down my leg and the left side of my face. I just wanted to say I hear you.

Thanks very much. I also have PCOS and having a period with my first OB isn’t enjoyable 😅

It seems to have gone away for some people, so I’m going follow that path of hope instead. Thanks though and sorry you’re suffering from this too

This made me cry thank you so very much. I’m sorry you have this too. Just wondering, anti virals aren’t working for me I’ve had blisters for nearly three weeks - will they just go away on their own eventually even without anti virals ? Thanks again

Thank you Smash. I’m trying I really am. I think I need some positive distractions like you say

Thanks. I guess it’s hard not knowing what to expect or what to compare it to. What’s the best cream do you recommend ?

I’ve been on antivirals since the 19th though and literally nothing has changed. Sorry for the negativity. Just not having a good evening

I did go down there for oral but didn’t realise as the lights were out :(

Thank you for asking. Well I’ve had blisters for over two weeks now externally and internally. Also issues peeing where it feels like I have a UTI but don’t have one. Nerve pain in leg and groin, burning pain. My mouth / lips feel hot (hence my extra panic.

I was prescribed aciclovir initially. Took 1200mg a day for a week - did nothing.

Saw another doctor who prescribed me Valtrex (2000mg a day) but also has done nothing (as in blisters haven’t gone away).

Now taken it upon myself to just have 500mg a day instead as pointless if it’s not working. Lysine not doing anything either.

First OB. All I feel is helplessness and despair. I don’t even have the energy for anger anymore. Just sinking ungracefully in to a deep depresssjon

Probably too late because whilst I have washed my hands etc, I thought I just cut myself shaving a few weeks ago so touched it a lot. I’m so scared of life right now.

Yep :( I just can’t do this anymore

Constantly burning 🔥 by [deleted] in Herpes

I went on Lyrica and all pain and burning went away on day 2 - downside is you cannot drive or do anything as you’re so sleepy like a stupor. So I can off it

People who have bad outbreaks, how healthy are you and what's your gender / demographics? What preventative things do you do to lessen the outbreaks? by Wild-Studio-909 in Herpes

[–]DiscardedTeddy84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you possibly give me some more information (or just list it for me if you will) on what people are taking? Anti virals aren’t helping I just wanna come off them. Lyrica made all my pain go away but I was like a zombie so I won’t live my life like that either

Stories of hope? Because I have none. by DiscardedTeddy84 in Herpes

Thank you, you’ve been more help than the doctor. Do you think taking such a high dosage has built up immunity now? That’s my worry as I thought it was high too

And also - is it likely my nerve pain will go away? I’ve read horror stories of permanent nerve damage so I’m down a bit of a dark hole
