Steroids

Yes, I've been having major long HSV2 outbreaks and symptoms. I'll get a bump then it will go away then another one will pop up and then it will go away then another will pop up and this process went on and on. I was taking 500mg of Valacyclovir suppression therapy. Well, I started taking 1000mg a day of Valacyclovir to try to calm everything down. I finally didn't have bumps pop up, but I'm still having the tingling and burning. Well, I'm pretty sick now with some kind of respiratory infection and I'm pretty sure they're going to prescribe me steroids. I want to get better because my coughing is very raspy and uncontrollable, but I'm worried that I'm going to get more bumps and send everything into overdrive again. Which, the herpes calmed down some, but didn't totally go away. What can I do while taking the steroids to help with this? I've been trying so hard to calm this down and work on getting my immune system back up but I definitely can't take more of this illness. Help someone, please!
