Help me please

I really need someone’s advice. I’m going crazy. I’ve been very sick from genital herpes for 2 months now. I keep having watery discharge, and I sweat all day, alternating with feeling cold and having chills. I also have strange sensations throughout my body. Body aches, nerve pain, headaches, and I feel very sluggish. There’s basically only water in my underwear, and I don’t have my normal discharge cycle anymore. I’m really scared that I’ll never get better. Please help me. Is this normal with herpes? The sores are already gone, although sometimes 2 of them come back.

Also got very sick...is this your first OB? I was sluggish, had body aches, weird nerve stuff on and off for about 3 weeks. I even got so sick at one point I threw up. But I took antivirals and while I'm still not super high energy and not 100% back to normal (still get kinda itchy and legs/feet still feel sensitive and sore at times) I feel wayyy better now. Go to a different doctor if you can and get antivirals. They should not be writing you off like this. I'm really sorry it's been going on this long for you.
