Guest guest Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 Hi all - My boys have a cousin who I'd like to have to a birthday party next Thurs but has a cold sore breakout... He just started Valtrex for it today... I don't want to invite HSV to my house - not to be cruel to a cousin!, but I do feel it's important to avoid it if at all possible. (He also has a staph infection, too, but that should be gone by then.) Will Valtrex suppress the virus and reduce the risk of spreading it? My son has been sick and really can't afford the exposure, and they're all still too young to really be capable of watching the spread of germs and viruses. Am I being mean/paranoid? I mean, the parents will understand and even alerted me in advance, so I won't be offending anyone. I don't want my son to miss out on his cuz's company, either. Thanks- __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
