Cold Sores Follow-Up
Dear Lizzy,

This is way too late to be useful, but there are also sores that aren't from herpes. I get stress-related cold sores in my mouth and lips, especially if I haven't had enough sleep. This is actually quite a frequent occurence for me after cons.

(I know they aren't herpes because I had them tested when I went through a period of constantly having 6-8 sores in my mouth for weeks; in a way it's a shame, as herpes-related sores respond to antibiotics. *Grin*)

Not Always Herpes

Dear Not Always,

Thank you for that information! I'll make sure to post it next week. Actually, by next week I'll have forgotten. I'll post it now. Thanks!
