Living with Herpes and COVID-19: My Struggle

well it's been 13 months almost 14 months since I've come down with sarscov2. I started having rectal and vagina burning went to a rectal dr and a obgyn my tests for candida is clear. so why am I still burning? went for my follow up with the rectal dr he shares w me if I've ever had herpes. mind you I'm 50 yrs of age I've not have had any illnesses prior. well I have herpes simplex 2 and I guess this is why I've been burning in my rectum and vagina. I belive its from covid 19 and sarscov2 pneumonia. now I have to take seroq300 trazad50 amitrip25 clonzap0.5 levothyroxine 50mcg I've been taking lysine500mg but now I have to take valtrex to help suppress my herpes. I am not even sure why all this is happening to me now. I did go get stem cells in Mexico but unsure if this is a reason. I have scaring in my lungs after 13 months and this is permanent. I only want to live a normal life once again. I've read that my life expectancy is 2-5 yrs I pray this isn't true but anything is possible

yea I've had sex with my husband and I have had unprotected sex in the past the only one I've ever had oral sex with was with my husband. I've read online that sarscov2 shopping w covid 19 can cause herpes and hiv. Try to research I've not ever had an STD ever in my life except for Chlamidia and trichomoniasis from my daughters father he was a male gigolo. I've also have had Mano from him but I cleared that up fast with the gold listerine mouth wash for an entire month.

I'm so sorry to hear of your ongoing health issues. I need to research stem cells, but have you had oral sex with someone that might have been affected? They could have had a cold sore from regular herpes. If you had a cut of any kind along with the cold sore it becomes genital herpes.
