Opus	How would they know?? It could always just be an extended remission, only to reappear later! ANYONE who tells you they've gotten rid of it permanently is a liar. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Todd D	No. There is currently no cure for herpes, only treatments. It's possible that there are treatments that have long lasting effects between outbreaks, lifestyle choices that decrease the incidence of relapse (low stress, diet, etc.), and there are definitely research labs that are trying to find a true cure... but to date, there is no permanent solution.

Tara S	Unfortunately for alot of people there is currently no known (atleast publicly) cure for herpes. Those that are infected with the virus can lessen the severity and frequency of the outbreaks by taking prescription medications such as Valtrex everyday. Also, changing eating habits to a healthier diet, increased exercise and less stress helps. Not to mention hygiene is ESSENTIAL! Protect all of your partners, even if you are not currently having an outbreak you can still spread herpes. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

RASBERRI	Okay, here is something to think about. My very good friend was diagnosed 4yr ago with genital herpes. Being in a long term relationship she accused him of cheating and left his a**. Now 4 years later she switched gyno doctors and when she went for her annual they tested her for all stds at her request. When the nurse called her with her results she said all tests were negative and my friend went off the wall. Tell me how one doctor test positive (reason for initial testing was due to out break) and another doctor test negative? I know errors happen in lab all the time. Maybe, maybe not an error. Maybe over four years she found the cure and just didn't know it. I know that herpes are forever but it is a story with a happy ending. Too bad for the boyfriend. Was this answer helpful to you?
