Question:
that's what it's called, right? i've been freaking out all day- the tell-tale tingling is in my mouth, my lips, my gums. could be something else- but most likely i've spread it to my mouth and if ive spread it to my mouth my boyfriend most likely has it there too. just shoot me now. i've never felt so unable to take care of myself in my life- I tried not using antiviral medication and self-policing food/stress/etc intake, but I just had endless outbreaks- i've probably had 10 major OB since I got HSV 2 in July, and 20+ minor ones. So the self-monitoring didn't work, so now i'm on valtrex. And now a boyfriend who is OK with his risk (although I am not)- and now possible oral herpes too! I really have had a bad bad day and I want to curl up into a hole and have this go away. It's a whole new level of things to pay attention to- no sharing drinks or food, no random smooches, just me in my bubble of disease:cry:

Answer:
Just stay calm and dont freak out. What happens to me i sometimes get paranoid and then i am constantly thinking about it and then i think i mfeel tingling on certain parts of my body. If you ever need someone to talk to send me a message. your not alone. from what i have been told it is hard to transfer the virus to other parts of your body but it is possible. If you have transferred it it will make life a little harder but it is something you can handle. be strong you will be ok. i know it feels like sometimes your life is over but i honestly believe that things like this happen to make us stronger. Take something positive out of something negative. Dont let this virus bring you down. Keep your chin up! I know it hards and i still struggle with it but its always nice to know that your not alone.
