Shortly afterwards I started feeling
dizziness and headache, located mainly around my eyes
and the temporal areas. In the past 3 months, I saw several doctors including ID, dermatologist and ophthalmologist, none of them could give me a definitive diagnosis, which is really frustrating. But I am 100% sure I got herpes. I tried to stop valtrex for a couple to days, then the fever came back. After resuming valtrex, the fever and diarrhea resolved the next day.
