i have recently been diagnosed with ******* herpes, although i have not had a blood test yet to confirm it. I went to walmart to get a prescription of generic valtrex filled and my total came to a ridiculous $244! i can not afford this kind of medication, i told them to just put it back. I have bad insurance, its called a health savings account and apparently it helped a little with the cost of the valtrex (what a joke). i am only 18 years old and will have to live with this the rest of my life, its painful and i feel that i can not have *********** until i am on medication that will reduce the chances of me spreading it. Is there another way to get this medication at a cost that i can actually afford? Or is there a way to make my outbreaks less frequent or painful? If i get medicated i will have less outbreaks, it will lessen my chances of spreading it, and it will reduce my pain and discomfort so i am very desperate. If u have ANY information i will be extremely grateful.
