Thanks everyone. I found a prescription of Valtrex in my medicine cabinet which is especially for cold sores, and it was prescribed a little while back by my dermatologist. So I took 2, then 2 more last night at bedtime, and the sores appear to already be crusted over. A good sign. Now, they just need to heal up, which can still take a little while. I just took a shower, and unfortunately, got my bandage wet, but I can't reach it. Thank goodness my best friend lives across the street. I will see if she is home to change it. We are so lucky to have each other. It is 65 here in Minneapolis today, and a sure sign that spring is on the way! We have really had a rough winter, so everyone here is eager for it to begin. These are the slow, tough days of healing, but, oh, so necessary. Happy, almost Spring, everyone!
