I was diagnosed a year ago. Very painful thing to deal with. 1 partner for the last 7 years. I did not like the idea of taking drugs for the rest of my life so I did some research. In the book "Women's Bodies Women's Wisdom by Christiane Northrup, she suggested vitamin C and Odorless garlic capsules and other herbal remedies. I only used the prescription for a 2 months then switched to using the Vitamin C and Garlic. On page 280 of her book she recommends that whenever you feel the slightest twinge or tingling sensation that indicates an outbreak is about to start, take 12 capsules of the garlic then take 3-4 more capusules every 3 or 4 hours for about 3 days. She said that in most cases this prevents an outbreak. I have been doing this for the last year and have found it to be very effective. Hope this information helps.
