Just as I thought my pain couldn't get any worse - I have small fibre neuropathy - I now have facial shingles. Defo not the latest cat walk look I can assure you! The blisters are going down apart from the ones inside my lip, but the pain and sensitivity is MEGA! I have yet to be able to get through

Predisnolone and Acyclovir
I started on Predisnolone 5mg x 8 daily, 3 days ago for a lung disease that I have (Extrinsic Allergic Alveolitis).This has now caused a major outbreak of Herpes, which I get now and again - can I take Acyclovir whilst on this Steroid? Desperate!

How to get prescription for Valtrex instead of Aciclovir from NHS? herpes type 2
I have been taking Valtrex for my genital herpes (HSV 2) for last 5 years because it works faster for me than Aciclovir, and i do not have upset stomach from taking it. I have done lots of tests in my home country to determine Valtrex is best for me. Then i moved to the UK to study and i found out that

The WORST illness I've EVER endured!!!
I was just diagnosed with Viral Meningitis approximately 2 weeks ago. :( After 1 day from returning from a short vacation trip, I began to have a piercing headache that just didn't seem to want to go away. So I went back to work for 1 day and took lots of IB Profen & Excedrin all day, but it just wasn't

Lupus Pancreatitis
Treatment with
Ganciclovir
(an antiviral) was begun. The patient improved and eventually recovered. The 33-year-old Slovenian patient obviously benefited from excellent medical care. The team of doctors who treated him were skilled and creative.

Good results with plaquenil / Minocin combination
Just found this site, we live in the US. My daughter is now 20 and has had Behcet's for 4 years. She was diagnosed last year by chance at her college by a fabulous dermatologist. She began with a genital crater at age 16 that was so painful she could not void and ended up on Percocet 2 tabs every 3 hours

Widespread Shingles AGAIN! What treatments have other people been given?
Hello, I'm just returning to "life" after a month of Shingles, this time on my face, scalp, inside mouth, on stomach (and if the pain was anything to go by, it was in tummy also!!.) I had an endoscopy in Nov. whilst having a Shingles attack on my face, and I believe it was this that drew the virus inside

Cold sores (Herpes virus) children immune suppressed
Hi My 4 year old was born with Biliary Atresia . He had the Kasai at 12 weeks and then had a transplant at 10 months old. At the moment he is getting a lot of cold sores. Each time we need to put him on a 5 day course of Aciclovir. When his brother gets cold sores he still needs to go on Aciclovir
