cold sores
"I always have a packet of this on me. ALWAYS. In the hand bag, in the bedside drawer... it doesn't matter. I feel panicky when I don't have a packet on me somewhere.
Many times I've thought I've felt the tingle or seen a tiny little bump, and I've taken the 3 x pills STRAIGHT AWAY and no cold sore has ever appeared. There was one instance when my lip got burnt from too much sun / wind exposure, and my lip swelled up and I had the MOTHER of all cold sores - unfortunately these nifty pills didn't stop that, but definitely cut healing time back to roughly 4 days (instead of 10!). Zinc, Lysine and yoghurt are also very good to take when treating an outbreak. Good luck!"
