I'm very nervous since my girl friend has herpes 2 but I don't . She gave a hint to me to go down to perform oral and tongue on her and lick and tongue on her ass too. Is the rare trammit virus with my tongue and lick on her clit, hole and ass? Thanks a lot,

There is a great possibility that you already have the virus, but it isn't manifested (most individuals have no or only minimal signs or symptoms from HSV-1 or HSV-2 infection).
You may expect to have contracted the HSV-2 orally, but this isn't relatively common.
Genital organs are site of preference for HSV-2.
Also, having prior oral infection with HSV-1, lowers the risks for oral infection with HSV-2.
Performing oral sex during outbreaks of genital sores has greater risks for HSV infection.

Are you thinking of having HSV anybodies blood test?

Those infected with herpes virus, on average, experience 4-6 outbreaks the first year, with a decrease in outbreaks occurring over time.
The recommended dosage of VALTREX for chronic suppressive therapy of recurrent genital herpes is 1 gram once daily in patients with normal immune function (the risk of sexual transmission will be reduced).

Valacyclovir or Valtrex is actually a "prodrug," meaning it is not active itself, until is converted to acyclovir in the body, and it is the acyclovir that is active against the viruses.
The difference between Valtrex and Acyclovir is duration of meds.
Valtrex has a longer duration of action than acyclovir, and, therefore, can be taken fewer times each day.
Usually, Valterex is used once a day, but, acyclovir needs to be taken twice a day.
Valtrex is more expensive and costs about two hundred dollars a month.
