LOL HERPES Anonymous
HAY /fit/

I have the herpes simplex virus (cold sores). I've had it since I was 12 and only ever had 2 breakouts.

Well the other day I noticed the corner of my mouth was itchy and tingly and shit, which is usually a sign of an incoming coldsore. I searched online, and I decided to try Valtrex (which you have to use at the BEGINNING signs of a coldsore, before it's actually visable). The dose is usually about 2g immidently, then another 2g in 12 hours.

I took the 2g, and went to take a nap. About 45mins-1hour later I woke up to THE MOST HORRIBLE PAIN I have EVER experienced in my life. In my kidneys. It was like I was being repedidly punched and winded in each one. It lasted about 15-20 minutes, where I couldn't move, speak, breathe right, and I just cried.

It isn't unbareable anymore, but my kidneys are extremely sore.

The thing is, I havn't taken the other other 2g, which I'm supossed to take in about 9 or so hours. Should I? Would the first 2g be enough? Are my kidneys okay? I read you shouldn't take Valtrex if you have kidney problems (which I don't by the way), so I naturally assume it affects the kidneys somehow. But is this normal?

ARE MY KIDNEYS DYING? Would it have been wiser to just let it flare and use tropical shit to speed the healing?

fucking oooowww...

Yeah, something's very wrong.

Do you take a lot of painkillers? Especially Tylenol?

i'm not familiar with the regular doses of valtrex, but 2g seems alot. call your doc or your pharmacist asap and ask if A)the doc can decrease your dosage or B)maybe the pharmacist gave you the wrong dosage.

Nope, I don't take anything except 150mg Effexor daily.

The Valtrex website said 2g is the usual adult dose, so I don't get what's happening. I'll be sure to get it checked out if it's not better by morning.

Go ahead and take the other pill. The same thing happened to me and I'm fine...or maybe I'm lying and I want you dead.
