For Those Who Are In the Same Situation As Me- I've Herpes Posted: 02-02-07 00:58am
The verdict is out. I had contract herpes
and gonorrhea. I had a jab for gonorrhea,
took pills for chlamydia and taking famvir
for herpes. I'm revising the doc next
week for followup.
Besides the phsical pain, i'm also dealing
with the emtional pain.
For those of you who had contracted the
same as me...........What do u noticed
after oral medication? How did it affect
u physcially or emtionally?
Please share your experiences.
Thanks
joan

Hi joan-
wow...That is alot to take at once. I
only have hsv 2. At first, I was
devestated... Felt like a leeper. I was
lied to, and betrayed. The first week
was an emotional one- one i'll never
forget.
But.. Then someone told- you can't let it
control you. And they were right. This
doesn't define who you are...Sadly, this
is the way of the real world now.. How
common stds are in this generation.
So..I picked myself up with the support
from friends and family- and decided to
stop feeling sorry for myself, and this
can get better. Managable. I educated
myself, and still am. I go to a
therapist a couple times a week, and next
week, I plan on attending a free seminar,
at the local hospital- where other people,
like me- have this problem. I think,
seeing that I am not alone- and actually
hearing how they contracted the virus,
with help me greatly. After that- the
nurse said they'de give us as much
information as the group needed- with
diet, excercises, daily supplements, etc.
It will get better i'm here if you
would like to chat- or you can pm me
anytime. Keep your chin up!
