I went out and bought the Super Lysine plus made by Quantum, just seems like an all around good immune booster it has Vit C, garlic, echinacea,licorice,goldenseal.propolis---all good stuff. I also boughtan essential oil mixture made by Simplers called Herp Aid, that has tea tree, lavender, mellissa in an olive oil base---I am determined to figure this out. I'll let you know....I have used tea tree oil for all kinds of things including tick bites, pimples, weird rashes etc---seems to work well.
