I just recently started getting outbreaks about 3 p/yr over the past 2 years, Just started
Valtrex as
suppressive therapy p/ my dr. She felt with my history of low (sometimes years between outbreaks) outbreaks with NO therapy, that it was time to start.
Just some info, I am 44 yrs old, perimenopausal(could be a factor for me not you;))
am a vegetarian ( soy which I just learned can trigger it) just a thought for you and your wife to ponder and talk about.
