Suppressive Therapy & Subsequent OBs
Posted , 7 users are following.
I began taking acyclovir as daily suppressive therapy immediately after my diagnosis of HSV2. My doctor did say, and I've also read that, the initial outbreak is generally the worst, and they get better--less frequest and less severe--over time. With taking suppressive therapy, I haven't had any symptoms since my initial OB healed. My initial OB was more flu-like symptoms with shooting pains down my legs, sensitive skin, swollen lympth nodes, and internal lesions since I thought I originally had a UTI.
I'm wondering though... since I'm on suppressive meds, if I ever get off of them, does the virus try to make up for lost time? Is it possible that I get off of them and have a bunch of OB's, or does it not really work that way? Would I just get them as often as I have been....infrequently.. (which thankfully so far is never).... ?

If you are seeing anyone now, or plan to in the near future, I suggest you take the medication. I think another reason I started taking it so early on after my 10 days on valtrex was over was simply because I was terrified of how my body would react to this virus. As FelisCatus pointed out, I don't know how my body would react without the meds.
