"Will larrea cause an outbreak when you first start taking it?"
 
   I started taking larrea 3 days three days ago. For the first time in a year I had energy, my sore throat went away, I no longer got nauseous, and the outbreak went away (first time in a year I hadn't had at least a few herpes sores.) Now all of a sudden I have more herpe sores than I've had in months? I'm wondering if larrea can cause a bad outbreak before it clears them up for good? Everyhting I've read about larrea (which is alot!) said that larrea will stop outbreaks all together. If anyone has any info on this please let me know, thanks!

   I've never even heard of larrea, but maybe someone else who has will come along.

I was just wondering how you were diagnosed with Herpes. Even if you have a bad go of it and frequent outbreaks, you shouldn't have Herpes blisters daily for a year. Even if you do have Herpes, you may also have something else going on that mimics it or is exacerbating it.

Best of luck to you.

   I was diagnosed through a blood test and a swab test. I refuse to take prescription because after 20 or 30 years of taking a prescription your body will become immune to anything that may cure it. prescription give you a small amount of what you need to cure it that way you never get cured and the drug companies get all your money. I want to be cured but I'm not having much luck right now, I have a bad immune system and a prescription will lower it more. I think the reason for non stop outbreaks is because I'm not on a prescription and I'm stressed, very stressed, thanks to the jerk who gave me this and yells at me nonstop for being sick.

Thanks for replying.

   The way antivirals work is they only interrupt the replication of the virus. That's it. The meds don't have any relation to a cure. There is no cure for Herpes. And some people have been on the antivirals for decades; there's no problem with longterm use. They don't lower your immune system. Besides, just 'cause you might need meds now to get things under control doesn't mean you have to take them forever.

If you think the person who gave you this is a jerk, why are you still involved with them? Why would they yell at you for being sick?

Even being properly diagnosed with Herpes doesn't mean you couldn't have something else going on either behaving like Herpes or keeping your Herpes active.
