Well a) it should have little to no bearing on a life assurance issue.
With somewhere between 15 and 20% of the population carrying HSV2 and
50-75% carrying the second option of HSV1 and a very very limited issue
on affecting life then its going to have to sit in the relatively
innocuous bracket as being a common risk, b) it wasnt an issue that would
need mentioning in any life assurance form I've had to fill in (mortgage
attached ones mainly and since I was working with it) and c) not
mentioning it and then say having a local hospital prescribe for some
reason - or just the company finds out then its an argument for them to
try and weasel - if its in your notes then they can't argue that you didnt
tell them - obviously we get into arguments of how likely are they to find
out. Hiding something even if its innocuous may cause all sorts of trouble
- and all it takes is them to ask the wrong person at the wrong time (eg a
partner)

If this is an issue of 'don't want genital herpes in documents some
stranger is going to read' then get the doc to use a fistful of technical
terms that tell an expert exactly what issue is without letting some
random spotty teenage clerical assistant get cheap (if wildly
inaccurate) giggles by having some word set they pick up on.

Yes but that only gets a one of set of meds. Long term doesnt going back
each time get rather time intensive - not to say possibly less than
optimum treatment options.
