YUCK..going to docs tomorrow....this time round my legs feel sore as if iv excersized too much (i havent lol) and diarreah ..does kalms help anyone :0( would those legs be a side effect? sorry if thats silly but the body works in strange ways eh xxxx

use acetone - nail polish remover; just dabbed on & clear in 48hrs.

If it works for you please tell me - it works for me, cheers

tamborine ive read this..but i was scared incase it scarred/stung!? does it sting..im assuiming u havent scarred or you wouldnt do it....thanks fr advice! eash i will look into them thank you! x

just a little quick sting & no scarring.....foolproof & instant.

Often coldsore are picked up from public cups & glasses - if they were dipped in bleach regularly it would kill the germs.......dirty pubs & clubs with disregard for their punters !

Poor thing, cold sores can be so debilitating, I too feel so drained the day before one crops up but I usually put it down to being run down and stressed there must be a conection.
In the past I have tried Liqourice Balm which I sent away for as a miracle cure but it didn't work for me.
Just Zyvorax in liberal quantities seems to make them stop hurting so much
Wish you well Bx
