"You tested positive for Herpes Simplex 2... is that a shock, or were you expecting that?" I understood why the polite female voice at the other end of the phone asked me that, but at the moment, it seemed like an idiotic question. I never, ever had any sort of reason to think I might have had genital herpes. I'd been tested multiple times before (with negative results), was normally pretty cautious about sex, and even when I made stupid choices I'd at least ask my partner about their "cleanliness." In fact, when I got this test, I was still supremely confident that nothing was out of the ordinary, and that I was just being paranoid. So yes... a bit of a shock.
Let me rephrase that: It was a huge shock. I was on my mobile phone, driving, when I was asked that question. I had to pull over and stop because I turned as white as a sheet and started sweating bullets. After I was sure I wouldn't kill myself or anyone else if I passed out behind the wheel, I had a hard time talking... I'm pretty sure I was hyperventilating, but it's tough to say now.
"That's... the... coldsores... herpes... right?"
"No, that's type one. You have type two - genital herpes."
I could feel the contents of my stomach gurgling... bubbling up, waiting to boil over and out of my mouth in a nervous vomiting fit. I held it down and concentrated my best on asking some questions. Questions that any newly-diagnosed person would ask. Questions that I'm sure the polite female voice heard numerous times a day. Questions from frantic people grasping at straws, hoping for some bit of inaccuracy or incompetence that they could hinge a misdiagnosis theory on.
With each question, I realized two things. My polite female voice wasn't polite enough to placate me, and the odds that this diagnosis was solid were pretty positive (no pun intended).
After my phone call with the counselor, I tried my best to press forward and navigate through my now upside-down world. I was able to muster enough courage to talk to my girlfriend about it, and became an expert on HSV-2 through exhaustive reading.
Now that I've come to terms with the situation, I'm fighting this incredible urge to go on a witch hunt to find out exactly who infected me. Despite the fact that it wouldn't cure me, and despite the fact that it was I who risked exposing myself to the virus through some irresponsible sexual encounter along the way, I still want to know who it was.
The worst part is I have no idea of knowing who it was, and not because I'm some kind of a "man-whore." It's quite the contrary, actually. I've never had random sexual encounters, and have only had unprotected sex with longtime girlfriends that I trusted. Plus, again, I've never had any warning signs. Because of all that, I have no accurate reference point... an incident that I can point to and say, "that was probably it."

. IF IT DOESN'T JUST ONE MORE THING TO SCRACH OFF MY LIST OF ATTEMPTS
... LIFE IS FULL OF RISK AND HERPES IS ONE THAT HAS BECOME A REALITY
for "ME" (CAN'T SPEAK FOR OTHERS) AND I'M WILLING TO TAKE A CHANCE OF "INVESTING" MY MONEY IN A POSSIBLE CURE N ATTEMPT TO "BETTER MY HEALTH" AND to CURE ME OF THIS plague
OR "WASTE" MY MONEY IN A POSSIBLE CURE N ATTEMPT TO "BETTER MY HEALTH" AND CURE ME OF THIS plague


i see you are attacking the Lectroject.I have to state i was a user of this product as i had HSV 2.To date it being 2 years i have had no outbreak and last test negative.So if you have not tried something dont attack it and name it a scam.there are many as i once was who could benefit from this product.
Dear sir/madam:
Forgive my skepticism, but every single reputable medical information website (webMD, HealthCentral, etc... even Wikipedia) still conclusively says that there is no cure for genital herpes. On top of that, if you do a simple Google search for "Lectroject," nearly every page that comes up (aside from ones within the Lectroject site) echo what I've been saying about the product's questionable-at-best nature. In fact, here's a page that gives a complete product analysis:
http://lectroject.googlepages.com/
It's not just me that thinks this product is a scam, and it's not an "attack" if it's true. In your case, if you tested negative after having the disease, praise God! You're one of the few (if any) people that have been cured. However, because of all of the current information, I'd wonder if your initial positive diagnosis was accurate in the first place. Again, since all reputable sources say there is no cure, it makes me wonder if you ever were truly infected in the first place.
I'm not saying this product doesn't have any benefits. I'm not a doctor. I haven't tried it myself. It may help manage outbreaks, it may have beneficial theraputic qualities, but I'm still pretty sure that it's not a cure. Thanks for your feedback.
I'm not sure what your sources of information are, however a recent studies shows medical doctors to be glorified drug dealers, easily manipulated by drug companies, and most medical journals are peer-reviewed. We know that the system of peer review is biased, unjust, unaccountable, incomplete, easily fixed, often insulting, usually ignorant, occasionally foolish, and frequently wrong. Some sociologists of science even argue that peer review makes the ability to publish susceptible to control by pharmaceutical elite and to personal jealousy. My personal opinion is... It probably has something to do with the corporate policy: There is no money in a cure. As companies have realized over the years, there is much more profit in treating a disease. The cure is great, but doesn't help stockholders!
how do u really know that you had herpes 2 to begin with, did you get tested before you used the Lectrojet to see if you where truly positive with herpes 2...and also can you tell me why you are the only person on the internet who claims to now be negative, if in fact so many people have tried it and are not coming forth telling the world about there results as being cured, as you have....perhaps maybe you are a person who works for or owns the lectroject device in south africa, how and when can you show the world that you are for real, so that the rest can really believe you...so what is your answer.......hope you are for real and if so,,,,,,,,,state your case clearly and with integrity....thanks, by the way i tried the device and it did not work for me...i want to believe you, but tell me how i can believe you, as i do not even know how you, you should go on national tv and state your results so people can maybe believe you as to your alledged positive results...make a believer out of me, please...i need to your help to believe it.........so do something about it....to make us all believers and healed of this thing called herpes.......ok......we are waiting for you to do it......!!!
You know you are conning people. Give me one geniune testimonial and not the ones you have in the file at Marietjie Morgans house as i have been through them all and they are bogis. You know full well that the device does not work. You are even marketing it under Cell-Cure-Booster.com and know it is a scam. I have seen these devices 1st hand and it is just a load of nothing. Wires and batteries and nothing to prove it works. Claiming it was approved by the F.D.A. Only the Acyclovir was approved not the Lectroject. Danie kriel you and your sister Marietjie Morgan are conning people. You have never had HSV2, you are lying as you are the one marketing the product. You cant fool the intelligent as you are writing on your own site.
This device does not work. So stated on freepressrelease and Cell-Cure-Booster.com. Also marketed as Lectroject Marietjie Kriel Morgan (cellcurebooster) Danie Kriel (Lectroject)
This machine DOES NOT CURE. I like other's dream of there being a cure to the virus weather you have accepted it or not in life. After reading the information online and checking this webiste hundreds of time I took the plunge. Whilst I admit it has been effective in clearing an attack better than messy creams of expensive tablets it certainly does not flush the virus from system. To anyone with the machine order extra supplys of eletrodes (online in usa) and more cream to continue using the machine to at least make use of the wasted money. DO NOT LET HIM WIN. Im sure there are hundreds of testimonials he does'nt publish on his website if only I'd seen them in the first place.....
