Occasionally during the first couple of days, I have slight nerve pain down the back of my thigh. The only change
in the past year was that I began taking the birth control pill,
Yaz. Also, I am on 500mg of Vatrex daily simply for the assistance in possibly spreading the virus to my partner. But, it never seems to help with prevent or clear up these "episodes". Are these herpes outbreaks or something else?
