Finding out you have an STD
I was stupid on holiday, I slept with someone without using contraceptives... the result,
Herpes
. As a 21 year old woman, it's not something you want to hear. I walked home from the doctor's feeling numb and upset and as soon as I got into my house and saw my mum I broke down crying.

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.

I'VE JUST FOUND OUT I HAVE HERPES AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO :(
I've just been told by my doctor I have
herpes
. I have no idea when I got it and now i'm so worried I've given it to others. I don't know what to do. I don't want to tell anyone I know and just feel everyone will judge me.

Just picked up on this article during my research on 'encephalitis' this morning! 'Mail online health'
It can strike anyone at any age and is commonly caused by the
herpes
, or cold sore, virus. Three years ago Simon Rycroft, an economic development officer with Bury Metropolitan Council in Lancashire, contracted the illness.

Diagnosis and blood tests
However, those tests can be useful to rule out other conditions (
herpes
, MS, other skin inflammatory conditions, etc.).

Good results with plaquenil / Minocin combination
We were told it was systemic
herpes
type 1 and was put on acyclovir. She caught mono at school and was horribly sick again. she has been hospitalized twice since the first breakout. She continued with multiple genital and oral sores to the point she couldn't eat or swallow.

WAYS FORWARD - DOES THIS HELP?
Here’s an example: People suffering from acute depression are much more susceptible to cancer and viral infections such as
herpes
. But, when the depression ends, their body’s immune system can return to normal performance and the risk of disease decreases.

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

need to worry about givng him
herpes
if I don't have an outbreak, but the stuff online is downright scary. I don't remember the last time I had an outbreak. Should he always wear condoms when we have sex and his he safe to perform oral sex on me?

He hardly ever has any infections now, which is ironic as you would expect him to be more prone to infections, he used to suffer with cold sores, caused by the
herpes
simplex virus, but he never gets any out breaks now.

A waiting game
I was referred to a dermatologist straight away (after having several swabs taken for
herpes
etc). She did 2 biopsies on the ulcers down below and gave me prednisalone and dapsone along with lidocaine.

Shingles/Herpes Zoster
Hi, I would like to hear from any-one who has had Shingles/
Herpes
Zoster virus please. Mine appeared at the end of my spine. I had not been offered the vaccine routinely and wonder whether I should still ask to have it. Best Wishes Mini Mouse
