hi I've this crap 6 years I have avoided having a bf at risk I'll be humiliated after telling .
also what should I avoid doing because shaving set off 1 blister last week I've realized that's what can cause blisters .
I had a bath 2 nights ago in apple cider vinegar yesterday my vulva felt a dull pain like I'd been riding a bike all day and its hurts your vulva or vag in general.
then today I feel I've a sore inside my vulva lips I'm very emotional looking at the blister it reminds me of the mistake I meant 6 years ago.
I just need someone that's related to this stuff to talk too I cant talk to anyone .
also wondering what are triggers like shaving etc
thank you x

Do you take daily suppressive meds to minimize the outbreaks?

no I take no meds its impossible to get in my doctors we are taking on to many foreigners the NHS cant cope .
so what do the meds do ?
my ex told me there's nothing that helps .
I've had avicor but that's it.
ive had 2 out breaks in a month razor and vinegar I put in the bath.
usually I get 2 a year normally.

The meds help suppress outbreaks. Less outbreaks minimizes the chance of exposing your boyfriend to the virus. Mind you, it doesn't eliminate the risk, but cuts the odds of them catching it a great deal (by half from what I've read).

Hi Michelle,
So first of all i understand how you are feeling. I was dating someone a few years back and let alone did i know he was carrying this and would pass it on to me. He said he didnt know he had it either. Before this i was fine always check ups and yearly tests and exams. It was so hard at first. I cried and cried! I have noticed that when i am
highly stressed thats when i flare up. Normally i do shave but i try to when i feel leas stressed and use a moistured soap or foam to keep from the razor bumps that can potentially cause a breakout. If you have meds take those and do an epsom salt bath it takes out toxins and draws it out. As far as a new partner if its someone you really like tell him what happened and that you are aware of your body and when a breakout is coming. That with protection and when you are in the clear that it is ok for you to have intercourse. Let him know you want to protect him as well. Its what i did with the last person i dated and he was completely ok with it. If they really care about you he will understand. Hope this helps 😃

I get them maybe once month or every 2-3 months. My stress levels are really high and i get anxiety so mine are often but its only like one blister nothing more. I do take aciclovir which does help. If my stress is low i do better. Id try and see even a family practitioner because he can prescribe it for you. As far as the dating game goes i would just stay clear unless its someone you really like and care for. Explain what happened and be honest and then take tour precautions. Good luck
