This tingling sensation that is often listed as a symptom, how does it feel?
Does it feel like needles being stuck into the skin all over the body but
more predominately in the lower trunk section?

When I feel the tingling..its like when your foot falls asleep...and its
about to go numb...but with no pain....I feel it around my
femaleness...(to be politically correct, outside my vagina)
Its hard to desribe. I get it occasionally..sometimes with no other
outbreak.

For me it feels like a little tickle that you can't control.

It really depends on your girth (if you are a male) or your depth (if you
are a female). The sensation can range from large 2 inch nails being
rammed into your penis to general feeling of sewing needles being pushed
into your pelvic area(if you are a woman.)
All sensations should be felt in your pelvic area. If you have herpes near
your anus, remember not to scratch.

Tingling for me feels more like a little tickle.

3 years after my first and only outbreak of genital type 1, I have this
odd vibrating sensation in/on the head of my penis.
When it's happening, it will be like 1-2 seconds of vibrating, 3-5
seconds of no vibrating.
Of course, it's not *actually* vibratiing. (Imagine how popular I'd be
if it was.)
It's pretty faint. If I'm doing anythng that requires concentration, or
even just walking, it's so far in the background I don't notice it.
Urination kicks it off. (Morning erection, too.) As I get farther
away from the last urination, thevrbrating is shorter and the intervals
in between are longer.
Has anyone here ever had this? I'm not even sure it's the herp, but the
doc has ruled out imflamed prostate.

2 weeks after it started, it stopped. Acyclovir taken days 5-9.

I don't recall hearing of exactly that but when something foreign is
going on within your sensory nerve cells, I suppose all sorts of odd
sensory feeling can happen. And given the fact that herp affects
people in such a wide variety of ways on an individual basis ... well
... there ya go. On the other hand, something else causing it is a
possibility too.
If it's herp related, maybe the Acyclovir helped. On the other hand,
maybe it would have been over in two weeks anyway, with or without.
Is two weeks the approximate length of your previous vibrations? I'm
asking because that's within the range of a more conventional outbreak
so maybe that's just your individual bods way of outbreaking. Let us
know how your future experience goes with Acyclovir. And try to start
it on day one next time to see if it cuts the length down to less than
2 weeks.
And thanks for posting that. It's interesting stuff.
