Question:
I have had herpes (genital) for 20 years now. The good news is i went on to marry someone who was herpes free and did not ever catch herpes and i have two wonderful children despite having attacks when pregnant.

the downside is that for the past 8 years i have had recurrent herpes which they thought were linked to my period but proved not to be. I was on acyclovir for a year ot two then it stopped working. Then i tried a homeapthic treatment with cost about $1000 and that stopped me having attacks for a year or so then i started getting them again and went on to famvir which is now not working. I have also been told that i cannot take long term famvir now for a couple of months. The only product i have not tried is Valtrx.

Although i am ultra careful not to pass it on to anyoene else which can be tricky given that i have been having attacks every month and though the spots are not that severe the other sypmtoms are i.e. feeling depressed, tired etc etc.

I recently bought choraphor which seemed to work initially but this time i have a really bad outbreak and its has done nothing at all to help. Two weeks into the worse attack i have ever had and taking famvir and topical pencyclovir and chorophor initally. Plus salt baths and tea tree etc i am beginning to think this bloody virus has got the better of me.

Very unhappy!
