I have recently realized that of the total of 5 reccurences of genital herpes reccurences I had during the last three years since being diagnosed, the last 3 reccurences were all immidiately preceeded by the ingestion of a certain type of anti-inflamatory painkiller. The last reccurence happened 3 days ago ( my last reccurence before this was 16 months) and it started 2 hours after I took the medication. I have not stated the name of the drug for obvious reason but if anyone suspects that this has happened to them please reply. At the time I took the drug I was on holiday, had relatively no stress, had been in good health and had plenty of sleep in the week precceding the attack.


It is my experience is that reoccurences are from weak immune system, illness, stress, sunlight, certain foods, but I take hydrocodone on occasion for arthritis but each individual is effected differently. You probally have one of the other 3,000 strains of herpes 2 and effects you different than it does me. You know your bod don't take the pills if it causes that problem, do take anti depressants, and remember your still the same person so love yourself right. It is just another problem without problems we would be dead. It is a weird disease and yes it does suck but we are a strong bunch that have it no whimps in this club right.
