Hi! I'm a 30 year old female recently diagnosed with HSV-2G. My primary outbreak occurred in November. Almost immediately I started taking daily Valtrex. Once I felt my symptoms diminish, I stopped taking the pills, as I felt it was unnecessary to keep pumping my body with the chemicals. Just a few days later, I had a second outbreak. I realized that the Valtrex was truly only a suppressant, and decided I needed to seek out other options. I've come across many treatments.. And it's hard to know what to trust and invest in. I'm a generally healthy person otherwise. Perfect weight. No issues at my physicals. I work full time and raise a family. Anyways.. I decided to take what seemed to be a safe route and work on building up my immune system. I started taking lysine, echinacea, turmeric, emergen-c, and cleaned up my eating habits. (I have yet to quit smoking or give up coffee... Which I know eventually is a must.. Small shifts, right?) I also ordered a product called Quickclear which included ingredients to boost immunity and promote cleansing. I haven't been able to find much information on it otherwise, but it seems to be working to lessen the entire situation. I started taking the pills mid-December and stopped taking the Valtrex about a week later (in my mind I wanted to give my body the ability to fight the virus head on). I had mild symptoms for the rest of the month, but things seemed to clear up around the first of the year. Maybe it was my positivity? I started to get a bad sinus headache about five days ago and started coming down with something. . (Also hormonal because of the week before my period) I got another outbreak. I double dosed on lysine the first day and have been on top of it since. The symptoms are far less severe than the first two, but the emotional effects are what really get me. I have suffered immensely inside over this.. My resentment towards my partner has ruined our relationship.. And the anger I feel towards myself sometimes is crushing. I need to find a balance here.. And am determined to change my life in whatever way I need to make it better. I'm interested in hearing others experiences with Quickclear.. And other treatments::
Medical grade hydrogen peroxide, MMS, Chinese herbal supplements, reishi mushroom, olive leaf extract.. And particularly, Biogetica.
I've also seen a lot about emotionally healing, forgiveness, meditation and yoga. I know some of you have suffered with this for a long time and some have not "suffered" from it at all. I just need someone to talk to about this.. And some solid suggestions on how to pull everything together. Thank you in advance!

I have seen many people suffer in my life from illness, disease and addiction. Two of my family members have battled Cancer. I am truly sympathetic to anyone who suffers. I have conquered many demons in my life and overcome things that I never thought I could. I am indeed grateful that this isn't something worse.. But that doesn't take away the stress of the issue at hand. I am not the type to overreact and have not allowed this to destroy my life. By no means am I saying this is the end of the world. There are real feelings beneath all of this though.. Loss of sexuality which for me, is a slight identity crisis.. Worry of transmission.. And the general life changes that you have to make. It's quite overwhelming for someone recently diagnosed.. Especially when you are juggling being a mother, student and full time employee. I spent my younger years being somewhat careless with myself and the irony of contracting this at this point in my life blows my mind.. Anyways. I'm not here to minimize anyone's pain. I am just looking for help in doing just as you said.. Putting this behind me and enjoying life.

Hi, first of all, the entire world has one problem or another and having herpes is by no means the end of the world. I battled cancer 5 years ago and also wondered why me but we have what we have and cannot blame genes or other people for things. Trusting someone and getting hurt is the pits but we cant change human nature.
If you want some home remedies download "the updated herpes handbook" by terri warren. Its free and has a whole section on home remedies.
Just put this behind you and enjoy the life that has been given us.
