Hydroxyurea and Shingles
Well I got an answer from my haematologist saying that I did well stopping the pills during therapy and I must start again 10 days after ending the
Zovirax
(antiviral ) therapy. But my advice to all is do the vaccine! It is a terrible, disabling, painful condition that comes out of the blue!

Sores in nose - chemotherapy
Apart from a runny nose with chemotherapy (Carboplatin/Pemetrexed) I'm also getting sores that are very similar to cold sores - tried betnovate cream, but not much good, then tried
Zovirax
which is better, but doesn't clear them and still forms scabs that bleed. It can be very sore and painful.

Any idea what this could be?
I’ve been told by the doctor genital herpes, however I’m not convinced as I’m on
Zovirax
cream and Valtrex tablets at the moment, but they don’t seem to be helping me. They itch but don’t hurt Thank you!

Genital Herpes - Advice
I’ve been at the doctor last week who has diagnosed me with genital herpes and given me
Zovirax
cream. I’ve been using this for around 1 week and so far there is no sign of them clearing. Does anyone have advice as to how I can speed up the process of them healing?

See your Dr before a month is up if on high dosage prednisolone
The main infection was treated with
Zovirax
but 6 weeks later I am still suffering! My own Dr said it was some form of Shingles and now it has continued into Postherpetic Neuralgia...and again NOT NICE.

Ulcer is gone but...
Doctor got the viral swab result after 2 days of taking
Zovirax
syroup and rang me to stop taking it. Two days later, after taking only 2tablets of antibiotics, as I felt they will make all worse, I rang my doctor and asked for antifungal med.

Please, No Encore.
Any way, following a good dose of
Zovirax
Oral and eye ointment it rescinded after about a week or so and left me with the usual crusted skin craters and sores which are in the process of healing correctly now. BUT.... (You knew that was coming right?)

Is this linked to Hashimoto's?
I've tried using
Zovirax
in the past for cold sores but after applying it, it made my lip bleed and so it put me off using it again. :( Also I came over feeling very sick (almost to the point of throwing up) and sleepy yesterday, so I went for a lie-down in bed.
