I hate myself when I laugh at other people's pain so right now I'm feeling very guilty. But I guess you asked me to laugh by writing the blog so I'll get over it. Too bad these things are so funny when you have one. And wow, that one looks particularly painful. But I'm with Esther (comment #3) about using L-Lysine. I used to get nasty cold sores although I can't say that I ever named them. I take 500 mg of L-Lysine every evening and that usually keeps them at bay. If I do start getting one, I increase to several times a day for a few days -- that usually makes them either go away or at least keeps them from getting to be more than a little sore followed by a small scab and then gone. Much easier to live with. Just read this entry. I hate myself when I laugh at other people’s pain so right now I’m feeling very guilty.

I don't get them much anymore, thank goodness. If I do, they are small and go away within days. I had one years ago that was worse that Bernice and lasted for about 3-4 weeks.
