I Started Taking Adderall For ADD In Late November, 2015.

I started taking Adderall for ADD in late November, 2015. By Christmas of that year I had a herpes outbreak, even though I've been on suppressive medication for the past decade. This outbreak is extremely painful with no visible sores. My gyno said it was not herpes, but after months of suffering I asked my PP for help. He directed me to a dermatologist, who said it was indeed herpes, and put me on Valtrex. It's not working, and I've been in pain for 4 months. I think I should ditch the Adderall, but my psychologist doesn't think the Adderall is to blame. I'm willing to try anything, even though the stimulate has immeasurably improved my job performance . Adderall has improved my thought process, but I can't live with a constant outbreak. Do you have any ideas?
