Question:
I am freaking out right now!
This is my fifth outbreak since September when i found out i had this.
All my outbreaks used to be minor, even my first one but my last one was a little worst than the ones before and took like 3 weeks to heal. This one i have now is MASSIVE. It covers a 2 inch area (length) and maybe .5 inch (width) on my outer labia. It seems as if its getting worst each time rather than better which according to what i've read, it should become less severe as time goes by.
Im so worried because im now thingk ing about HIV. Im frealing out.
Has anyone ever experienced herpes getting worst? Or even such a massive one that covers a 2 inch area. Mine were usually 1 or 2 little blisters now there are like...i can't count. :(

HELP ME PLEASE! RESPOND PLEASE!

Answer:
i feel so bad for you. i think you should see your doctor immediately. are you on antiviral meds? are you taking lysine, vit c, b, zinc, etc. watching your diet? are you using any of the recommended topical treatments? maybe the summer weather/heat is making it worse?

Answer:
Im putting acyclovir 5% cream on it and i only have 5 200mg acyclovir tablets and my doctor won't be back untill Monday. I refuse to go to any other doctor. I take vitamins.

I did get some very upseting news a week ago and i came down with a very slight cold a few days before the outbreak but i'm fine now. Those are the only things i can think about that could have caused it to be so bad. But its REALLY BAD :s Everytime i look at it it seems as if there are new ones. I'm so sad.

I would really like to know id anyone has ever had it this bad.

Answer:
Hi just a quick reply. Im was using the same cream and the same tablets and it brought me up with the nasty rashes. Which are the side affects. My Blisters are sooo bad its unreal! im too scared to pee! so i no totally how you feel. Mine dont seem to get better either. They seem to do the oppisite which is very confusing. If the cream isnt doing anything go back to the docs and they will give you something stronger. This will make it so much better and you will feel less discomfort! dw u are not alone. Hope they get better.

Answer:
Overnight the whole thing just scabbed over and is now healing! I can't beleieve it, I'm really happy I dont have to deal with this much longer. I think I'm going to go on suppressive now because I dont think I could handle another one of these.
