vaginapaginaI just wanted to let you all know of the "magic in a tube" that I recently found.
I have genital herpes, and currently am only able to afford to take outbreak therapy. I currently am unemployed, and seeing that I don't have health insurance, I am unable to get my Valtrex prescription filled. So, I stocked up on the pills, and only use them when I feel an outbreak coming.
Because I am unable to take Valtrex everyday, I am more susceptible to have outbreaks more frequently, especially when I have any continuous activity "down there". Any continued stimulation in the same spot normally causes an outbreak every time.
When I was first diagnosed several years ago, the OB-GYN suggested I use Lidocaine (available by prescription only), and it seemed to work okay when I started itching, or was really uncomfortable. Once the Valtrex got good in my system, I did not have many more issues. Now, the Lidocaine has run out and I think I have found a suitable, if not better, substitute. So all of you out there that do not have insurance and are not able to afford it either....
Summers Eve Maximum Strength Anti- Itch Gel!!!!!! At this point, I really think I like it better than Lidocaine. It has Pramoxine Hydrochloride (pain relieving gel), and Glycerin (skin protectant) in it. For me anyway, it works a lot faster and stays longer than anything else I have had.
And I am sure it would be good for YI's as well, although I can not say I have tried that one yet.
Just wanted to pass that along, and, if I can help just one person get through their pain, like I am doing with mine, it is all worth it!!
