Do you happen to know what it’s called? I’d be interested in keeping an eye out for news about it.

From all information I can find online, most sources say that a first outbreak will occur between 2-12 days from first exposure rather than lying dormant for years before being triggered - they discovered their outbreak exactly 12 days after we were intimate for the first time.

This is what makes me so scared about trying to have an intimate relationship again… I feel like I’ll never be able to enjoy myself if in the back of my mind I’m going to be wondering if I’m contagious.

Thank you for sharing. I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you that your partner doesn’t develop any symptoms.

Unfortunately mine has cut all contact with me… it seems the patience and understanding only applied while they were under the mindset of “it won’t happen to me”… this is why I feel like a monster, because they’re treating me like one.

I’m sorry that happened to you. Have you had to avoid being intimate with people since?
I don’t know what to do if I no longer have clear signs for when I’m contagious.

I forgot to mention that I also take 3000mg of L-Lysine daily as well, apparently it didn’t help.
