herpes simplex, suppression
"I was told I have genital herpes by my gynecologist after suffering with several outbreaks. I began taking Lysine after extensive reading & it seemed to work. My "working" dose when there is no outbreak is 1,000 mg daily.   I was negligent & let my supply run out & last night had a horrible outbreak with much pain. Today I restocked & took 2  1,000 mg. tabs and then another 2 about 6 hours later.  I can already feel the difference and I will never run out again !  Lesson learned!  Chocolate is a definite trigger for an outbreak for me."
