The second time was close to a holiday weekendâ¦and I didn't have time to go to my doctorâ¦.so started searching the internet. The writer said to take 3000 mg of Lysine a day and in three days the itching would be gone, (she had several people's stories so I ran to the grocery and got L-lysine, started taking immediately, but thought I would start slowâ¦and take 2000 mg a day to start (spaced out). In two days the itching stopped (it was on the back of my neck -originally thought it was an infected mosquito bite-but started moving into my hairline-made it hard to sleep). I took 3000 mg (1000mg 3x day) for the next week, and the redness went away.
The third time (again, after a high stress event) I felt a pimple on the back of my neck (husband confirmed redness moving into hairline) so started taking 3000mg a day, within a couple days was resolving. I think I took it for about a week.
Telling everyone I know about thisâ¦husband's cousin said she has always used it for cold soresâ¦takes it the minute she feels the tingling, and it goes away without breaking out.
