    Yep sounds like herpes. Sorry. The medication works but not as quickly as we want. I double up on the meds the first couple days, seems to help. Taking lots of sits baths helps with the pain.

    No allergic reaction is going to cause that sweetie, I'm sorry. It is very hard to accept and come to terms w the diagnosis.

    The medication is not draining you, that is your body reacting to the infection. It is normal to feel sick and worn down when infected w herpes. I felt worn down for a week. Yes the medication helps and sounds like your body handle it relatively well, as I took longer to heal and developed severe neuropathy.

    Definitley sounds like it. Was told also that it was before test results came through. But when results come in make sure u go speak to someone about it. Once I did felt much better.
