Ladies, any assistance on how to treat herpes

Posted By: Kinnie on 2007-09-23
In Reply to:

My daughter has just sent me some information on something called Lectroject, apparently it is something that is used to inject medicine directly into the herpes blister?? Never heard of it but has anyone else. Any suggestions at all on how to treat herpes outbreak on the lips? Thanks so much!

Are you sure it's herpes? - sm
It could be impetigo, which is bacterial. Looks a lot like it, and happens mostly on the face, though, granted, more in children.
Those and the herpes commercials...(sm)

Nice way to educate the kids!!
anonymous herpes survey - sm

How common do you think it is?  I think it is very, very common.  Statistics show it affects about 1 in 3 people.  Do you know anyone who has it? (self included?)


I know a few people who have it.


Having constant outbreaks of herpes on my chin. Anyone try anything for this that really works
other than taking all different kinds of drugs.  I would rather try something more natural.  For some reason I keep breaking out.

Mother needs some assistance
She has way too much time on her hands and needs to MHOB.
Now this is not really assistance on a word but my daughter
tells me each time she uses the word irregardless, which I have said for years and she now tells me that is not a good word. Anyone else out there use irregardless??
Does any one know of any prescription assistance plans? sm

I need help with paying for medication that my husband needs that costs $150 a month and of course insurance isn't covering it.  I know that Walmart has the $4 prescription plan for generic medications, but his medicine doesn't come in the generic form.  Are there any other programs out there to help us?


Thanks


You chose assistance rather than working, right?
Says a lot for you.
Financial assistance question
Does anyone know if there are state programs to help pay for doctors visits. I have never applied for this, but as an MT I have typed reports for people who can't afford doctors visits and they get help. I have not been to an OB/GYN since 2002, and find myself in a position that I have to go. Keep putting it off because I have no health insurance (only catastrophic with a 10K deductable) and I am in a one person income family. Does anyone know if there is state financial assistance available and if so could you provide me with some links so I can find more information on this.

Thanks,
Love Craigs List but need assistance
i read Craigs List a lot and have purchased oodles of things from shopping there but now I want to list something and do not have idea how to do. I thought maybe self--explanatory but I wanted to list under garage sale and seems like I cannot find this section. If anyone can give me some talking through, I would really appreciate. Thanks1
There is free legal assistance for cases like this (sm)
Look up Legal Aid for your area - if I find a link I will post it for you. I think you need to report what your son has told you to someone!!! Who ordered the visitation? Get in touch with that office and start from there finding out who to report it to.
So you got assistance and left it up to me and other taxpayers to pay for your kids.
Shame on you. I had children also and I took care of them. I had a housekeeper, her sister had 6 kids and she told me "she takes care of hers" as she was in a house on section 8 and got food stampes that I as a taxpayer paid for. Until you pay for everything- the taxpayers had to pay for your kids. You sat home and drew welfare, put your responsibilities off on others. Shame!
Free legal assistance link - yes, start now!! sm

Never had a cat before? You are in for a real treat (sm)
Cats are just so cool.  I have 3 dogs and my 20 year old cat just died in Feb.  They work their way into your heart just like dogs do, but in many ways are so much easier to deal with.  And they have this way of looking at you when you give them the "wrong" food that day, like you have just totally lost your mind.   If you're gone for a few days, your dogs will be so excited to see you when you get back.  Cats will act like they don't care, and are just so uninterested that you came back (till an hour or so later when they decide to "forgive" you.  As you can probably see, I miss my baby.  Best of luck with yours.
TLR- ice cream treat

And by the way thanks to some of the ones that don't mind reading them!! 


 I decided to take a much deserved break a lot earlier than usual from the craziness going on today and plus it was so beautiful out I couldn't sit any longer.  Cupid and I went to Bruesters Ice Cream for a treat. He was sooo excited he ran up to the stand!!  I think he knew something special was waiting there for him!  It was the first time we went to there so he didn't know what was there yet.  The first thing the girl asked me was if I wanted a doggie dish.  When he got it, there was a little dog biscuit stuck in the icecream.  It was so cute.  I hope your having a good evening, later. 


Just found the best cat treat EVER -- sm
it's called Kitty Kaviar-- but I think it should be called Kitty Krack, LOL

It is thin dried flakes of real tuna and my cats cannot get enough (and they are fairly finicky).

My male kitty is diabetic and with these treats he lets me test him and give him his shots without any fuss whatsoever.
No not treat yourself -- see message
I type for a psychologist well known in my area whose caseload is 75% ADD.  He does a lot of natural remedies and supplements.  A good book is Brain Gym that helps with exercises to train the brain to be focuses.  A lot of exercise is necessary.   Lots of protein, DEH, etc.  But without getting him evaluated you are shooting in the dark as to what will and what will not help.  Insurance pays for it.  But there are a lot of natural supplements and things you can do but you need an expert to work with you and not just an MD that puts them on medications.  I have two nephews that have it, they went to this doctor and diet, exercise and supplements have helped tremendously and now in high school they are off medication.    If you had an infection or a medical problem you would go to a doctor and not treat yourself so don't treat this yourself.   Patti
They say docs won't treat them?
geez, I'm afraid...
trick or treat?
I'm figuring the way this day is going that I will turn off my lights, sit in the basement and eat 2 bags of Snickers instead of handing it out tonight.  I hear those little candy bars up in the pantry calling my name. I figure I am saving the neighborhood kids from cavities, weight gain, stomachaches and a night of bouncing off the walls.  I know they'll thank me later. 
What did YOU do for HIM???, does he treat u good every other day? nm

can you treat a UTI over the counter?
I am one of those lucky MTs that dont have health insurance and that makes it pretty annoying when I have probelms.  Like right now I am sure that I have a UTI, but dont want to go to the ER and get that $600 bill.  I bought some AZO and cranberry vitamin.  I figure I will drinks lots of water and see what happens... any suggestions?  Thanks a lot!
Michael Vicks ... I wish I could treat him the same. sm

I'm sorry but I am writing letters to every single sponsor of his and to the NFL and the Falcons. 


If I could, I would treat him the same way he has allowed those poor dogs to be treated. 



I would treat them like Paul Revere (SM)
Make em history!   You are better than that. I used to always try to figure out why someone acted a certain way. . like you I wondered what the problem was.  Found out from a wonderful psychologist who helped me over a terribly painful relationship that went bad . . It DOES NOT MATTER WHY. . what matters is that it happened. You need to move on. They are just not nice. I would think you took up bowling in the first place to have a good time!  GO FOR IT elsewhere!  GOOD LUCK!
Thanks for the treat...awesome photos!! nm

don't enable him to treat this way - especially with child to see
nm
But did you and your no account brother treat her
x
What a nice treat...I get stuff sent to me..

that way from Philly, cheesesteaks, hoagies, good pretzels, TastyKakes...it's nice to be able to get something good from home when you live so far away!


So then you WOULD treat a woman like a criminal?
what's that phrase, judge not lest...?
Treat everyone as if we all worked in the same office.

If you have not yet seen the deer and cat video treat yourself to

something wonderful.  Copy and paste and enjoy.  This is truly beautiful.

does anyone of those facial hairs like a mustache? if so, how do you treat it? sm
what is a fast solution and a long-term fix?  thanks!
What's your favorite Christmas treat/candy, etc?
Mine are the 'chocolate oranges' and Andes mints.

For homemade stuff, can't beat fudge, Chex mix and Christmas sugar cookies.

What're your favorites?
Put a little no fat cool whip on top, and you have a real treat

Does he treat you badly in front of your children or is it
usually "behind closed doors?"
Silly Girl shouldn't have to treat her
husband like a dog or a child.  After all, she is his wife, not his mother.  If she wants a pet, she can go to the animal shelter and get a dog.  She married a man and he needs to act like one.  It sounds like she gives and gives, and he takes.  I think Silly Girl should start taking care of herself for a change.
Rice-A-Roni, the San Francisco treat!

My favorite Christmas treat is January 2. lol. be glad when it is over.

He has "stud tail" but don't remember how to treat it. Call your

Doesn't matter what religion they are, the Indians treat

sounds immature and simple minded; treat him as such.

Have any of you ladies
Ever had an ASCUS Pap Smear result?
Oh, so ladies not the only ones who do this
I went somewhere the other day, can't remember where but my husband said so glad when he drove up and my car not home. Folks, he had bought himself a new toy, so to speak. He has invested in another large, really large TV (he has bought 3 in the last several months, returned 2). He went and hid this in the garage (I am not using right at this minute but usually park my car there) and then came telling me yesterday he had to tell me something. Well, I think the worst and then he tells me he bought another TV! I knew ladies sometimes hide shopping items but men? Thought that was cute.
Okay ladies, here's how...are you

educated at all? Do you have a job? If you live in a community property state you are entitled to half of the household. If you have children you will more than likely get child support, sometimes alimony. You may have to pare down your lifestyle a bit, but what is more important, material things or being healthy and happy emotionally? I got out of a horrible, abusive marriage that I guarantee would rival any of your experieneces. If you don't have any family how about friends, church members, etc., who can help you along. Save some money, put it aside. Either do something proactive, get some counseling or get rid of him. Also, have any of you thought that maybe you may be partially to blame for how you are treated by the man in your life? It works both ways, men aren't always the B@#$ards in the relationship.


Ladies: What can I use to get rid
This is quite embarrassing!  I wake up one day and have dandruff and can't seem to get rid of it.  What will work without leaving my hair oily???  Please help!
Thanks a lot ladies
you just helped my diet along!   Just kidding.  These sound delicious.
When puppy does her business where you want her to, reward her with a piece of food treat.
And when she pees in house, use paper towels and then place paper towels (soiled) to the area in the yard where you want her to do her business. Dogs tend to prefer where they smell the odor. Be patient. This dog is young. Confine her to an area where the floor will not be damage (tile or vinyl). Take her out six times away,including first thing in AM, right before bed, after she eats her meals. Pull water up a few hours before bedtime. Do enjoy your new puppy dog.
Ladies, please after reading your
posts you are sounding like a bunch of feuding school aged girls. What in the world is your problem? Retract your claws and be friends again, ok?
Ladies, you all are missing so much
I just got back from a wonderful, wonderful vacation today. I read below the women writing in about their husbands and the lives they have to lead. I wrote a post earlier about going out west- I go on 1 vacation that I want to and then my hubby and I go to Las Vegas together. I have visited 6 states in 7 days including Utah, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Idaho and South Dakota. I do my own vacation each year - my hubby is a long distance driver and to take a trip like this would be just too much more traveling for him- last year Alaska. I meet up with a tour with others from all walks of life. I had 1 lady ask me on the trip "did you husband LET you come on this." I told her we are way past the age of letting 1 another do anything. Women, why in the world don't you wake up?? There are so many really good men out there that would love you, be really good to you. You do not have to put up with crap. You are wasting your life away. I have said this before and will say again- one of these days you will look back and wonder where your life has gone, in a flash you will find yourself in your 50s or 60s and why should you put up with anything other than the best in life? I have a honey of a husband that I adore, love and cherish with all my heart. He is my best friend and there is not enough money on this earth to take the place of him. He never fusses, screams, or even gets upset with me. The most even tempered person I have ever met. He is short, balding and the most sexy man I think I could ever meet. I thank the Man upstairs for this man in my life.
