Type 2 Herpes Outbreak Vaginally. Diagnosed For Genital Herpes. Fever, Swollen Lymph Glands And Flu. Advise?
HI, I currently have a type 2 herpes outbreak vaginally etc. This laid dormant in my system for over 20
plus years and when I pregnant with my last child, she is ten now, I developed a sore in vaginal area, went to
my gyn and found out it was genital herpes etc. I got it from my ex husband, Ive currently been married to my
current husband over 30 years, I am 53, this is about the 3rd time I have had an outbreak, I believe its caused by stress? I feel like crude, Ive been running a fever, I have swollen lymph glands, it feels like flu, but I also had the eptstein barr virus too a few years ago does all this factor in and I am unclear as to my next step> maybe asking my physician for an antiviral treatment? I do not have a credit card, so I guess you can't answer my à. Sorry, I don't use a debit card or have a credit card.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The symptoms that you have are related to the herpes infection. These can be caused by Epstein barr virus. Most of the times, these symptoms subside on their own with supportive treatment. If symptoms are severe then anti viral treatment should be prescribed.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
