If anyone has followed my bout with herpes they probably have read that my BF is now(even though he gave me genital herpes) getting these huge horrible herpes lesions on his lips and/or face. Well, a couple mornings ago he woke up with one already red and irritated on the side of his mouth so immediately I made him take the Tagamet Treatment and 1000 more mgs of Lysine above his 500 mgs a day that he already takes and today the cold sore is almost gone!!!!!!!! Before when he'd get one they would turn into huge raw sores the size of a nickle at least so this is very encouraging...oh and the others have lasted 2 to 3 weeks to heal!!!!!!!!!!!!!:dizzy:

it is always great to hear what is working for everyone. I am happy you found something that works. Thank you for sharing it with us.
