Ocular herpes

[ALLEX]

Anyone had this?

Got a diagnostic few weeks ago, used zovirax cream for 10 days. Symptoms subsided, doc said it was clear. After 3 days symptoms are back and I wake up every night like there's a brick inside my eye...

Any tips?

Never heard of it. Get back to the Doc to get checked out again.

Is that contracted from livestock?
My girl bought a horse in New Mexico and it had herpes in its eyes.
I will ask her what they did for it.
Probably won't be helpful but you never know

I didn't know much about it, until I read up on it. It is like a cold sore brought on by contact of someone infected. It can be treated, but your Doctor will need to evaluate yours, since there are different strains. It could cause permanent scarring. I say see him on a regular bases, until you get it under control.

all of my stuff seems pretty helpful particularly the immune focus.

once your immune system is in high gear fare ups are mild to none existent.

I once got this about 6 years ago. I was prescribed drops and it cleared up within the week. some scarring however left my right eye blurred in certain areas. Not anything to mess with.

Had it once when I was younger. I scarred my vision in that eye permanently. Really sucked.

No, not from animals.

I've been kind of stressed and working at a place where I have to shake people's hands very often. Of course I bring hand sanitizer but can't use every minute.

Doc said it's the same virus that causes cold sores or genital herpes. Today medicine doesn't divide types by area anymore. Type 1 and 2 can cause both mouth and genital herpes. One of them may attack the eye. The virus lives in the trigeminal ganglion and if your immune system goes down, you'll have an episode. My lips are clear, but it attacked my eye, unfortunately...

Doc said I could have this since born and got it from my mother, or could've got it recently, there's no way to know. Word is that around 90% of the world's population has some kind of herpes. Really scary...

My lesions are below the field of vision, but I can't let them spread. I've been back on acyclovir eye cream for a few days, but will see if the doc gets me some pills to go along with it. Really sucks...

Yeah LK3, I immediately thought about your products when I learned that this virus attacks when your immunity is low. I need to get some...

Thanks for those who replied... If anyone knows something that docs won't tell me, please let me know.

Look into high dose Lysine orally and also as eye drops

Also google BHT herpes (butylated hydroxytoluene) and how it may help.

Then look into Enzymedica ViraStop enzymes.

I used to work in a supplement store many years ago and the lysine always seemed to help customers with cold sore type issues.

 

[Floxedone]

Yeah, lysine, monolauren(sp) is anti-viral also maybe look into acacia catechu extract

Thanks guys. That's exactly the kind of info I was looking for and doctors will never tell me.

Yes lysine works well
