Quote From: rayoflightYou obviously didn't have a good doctor. I hope your new one works out. You need to tell them what you want in a medicine so that they can find the best option for you. Don't let them give you something without having them explain it first.
I am happy to hear that you discuss this with your partners. Even though some ran, you made the right decision by being honest with them.
When I spoke withmy medical provider, she recommended Valtrex. I asked her if there was another Medication not so expensive. Yes there is, but it does not work as good and you have to take more often. With Valtrex, you take one daily. It works ok at least for the itching. As far as the outbreaks, I still have them. But she gave me a cream Denavir 1% that works really great. It is just as expensive. Having Herpes is really a life changing experience. I really get down when I have these outbreaks. I don't know which is worse, the outbreak or the itching. But, I am hanging in there because I know that God allows you to go thru things to strengthen your spritual growth. He takes you thru to get you to something better. It could be a testimony to help someone else. Stay strong all that has the disease.
