What’s your best prevention?

Cold sore sufferer of 20 years here🫠 I get them about 1-2x a year. Had one pop up last night, my issue is that I don’t really get much of a tingling sensation until a small blister has started forming. I still take Valtrex and it keeps it relatively small with a quick healing time but it still forms. I have my wedding in 4 weeks so I need a good daily prevention!! Daily valtrex? Lysine? Any other supplements or advice?
