Hi everyone, I’m new to posting so please excuse me if you see this post a few times in different heroes threads….I really need advice on Herpes. Does anyone ever suffer debilitating sciatica (debilitating to the point of ending up in a&e because I can’t even get out of bed , stand or walk)? I’ve had herpes for 2 years on 4th outbreak and I’ve noticed around a month before an outbreak the pain in my lower back, bum cheek and down my leg is a 10 on the pain scale and my mum and dad have to lift me out of bed and carry me to the toilet etc. then the pain gets better then I have an outbreak. I’ve read really scary stuff about it living in the nerves in the spine and am scared I will now have to go through this for the rest of my life x
