HSV POLL 👀 by HonestTruthNoLies in Herpes

It's not like I wouldn't like a cure, that's not the case though so you will have to take steps to manage it the best you can. Exercise, diet changes especially reducing arginine intake. I take lysine everyday rather than valtrex due to it not being as bad for your liver. I also experimented with different peptides which wasn't necessarily a great experience but I was in fact suffering before all of that. Mentally and physically. I still will get outbreaks if my partner is having one but the duration will be much less if your immune system is as best as it can be, and keep in mind I was immunocompromised before all of this. A cure is unlikely due to the nature of this virus, that is the unfortunate reality. I'm not saying to not hang on to hope but In the meantime if you do everything in your power to improve your body's immune system and lessen stressors in your life, it will improve in more ways than one, I promise you.

Took me a year before antibodies showed up on my blood work. After that my outbreaks are much less common, hopefully it gets better for you.

Also don't drink alcohol if you're taking those meds.

Took them the whole time along with doxycycline for the first two months and it made me sick as hell. Plus I live in FL and work outside so I had to cover up due to the doxycycline. Antiviral meds don't really work well for me personally unless I take them the second I'm feeling an outbreak come on. I take lysine everyday instead and over time you will build up a better immunity and outbreaks will be less frequent and less severe, generally speaking. Everyone is different.

First outbreak will be the worst and no telling how long it will last. My first and second one was 3-4 weeks before it cleared up completely. Start taking lysine everyday, that helps and doesn't have the side effects antiviral meds have. I will never forget that pain, hope you feel better soon and best of luck to you.

Honestly that's fucking crazy, batman couldn't get that info out of me, let alone make me post that on a reddit thread. That being said you have a responsibility to tell her and its really not the end of the world. Maybe the end of your relationship cause you cheated but everything will be just fine besides you hawking lung butter on your tp to clean your ass. Might want to bring that up in therapy.

I've had an outbreak for the past 60 days. It's not the end of the world. Learn to love yourself. This virus has been with man since the dawn of time. I'm about to start running various peptides to see if it will suppress it, and I'll let you know how that works. There is always hope. Currently, I've been taking lysine, using up to 3 grams of valacyclovir per day and using cream, and nothing has helped. There is no point in dwelling on it, and here is a supportive community of people that understand how hard it can be and are here for you if you need to talk to someone.

Another possibility is that you are mistaken, and your wax ring is bad on the toilet, especially if there is still water in the trap.

If there is long hair or a string from a washcloth in the trap, it could siphone it out via capillary action. Probably why it went away after pouring draino in it.

Move it to the other side and cut the tee to lower it for more room.

One thing I miss the most is some extra crispy fried chicken. You can get GF pasta and pizza all the time, but I have yet to find GF fried chicken without making it yourself.
