No, we are not aware that Valtrex can ward off latency, at least in your situation.
Yes, they are. So genital herpes would almost always be genital the first time and oral the same. Recurrences could be much farther afield, if you will.
I don’t know anything about digestive enzymes prohibiting HSV 2 oral infection. I guess that could be but I’m not aware of the science around that statement. You could contract HSV 1 without or without her having symptoms.
No, your symptoms don’t sound like herpes to me. And a clinician seeing them is a far better indicator than me guessing on the internet.
Remember that the IgG test for hSV 1 misses about 1-2 out of 10 cases so you antibody test may or may not be accurate for HSV 1.
You are most welcome.
