It's stress-related! 
Get some Abreva ASAP - it really does work.

Re: 8 days to my wedding and it looks like I'm getting a cold sore.
oh god that happend to me tooo 2 weeks before my wedding!!! I bought this tiny bottle of abreva (cost $18!!!) but i put it on as directed and I think it prevented it from spreading and getting worse. I did still have a scab for my wedding but it was covered with makeup and in a spot you couldn't really see it. But I think you should go to the doctor and see if they can give you something better since you only have a week to get rid of it.

Thanks Ladies, I've tried ABreva in the past and it works but it takes along time to heal. Thanks Toni, I will try the Lysine.

Re: 8 days to my wedding and it looks like I'm getting a cold sore.
i get them from stress too...I swear by carmex...it just takes it away and if I use it as soon as I feel something coming on, it prevents it from appearing.
my poor FH gets them constantly in the summer...he's a lifeguard and the sun exposure makes him get them. he uses the same thing i do.

Re: 8 days to my wedding and it looks like I'm getting a cold sore.
I know it seems like a lot of money but in the grand scheme it is not, go to the store immediately and get Abreva, put it on 2 more times than it says to , you won't get it if you think you are!!!! My cousin swears by this stuff!!!

Re: 8 days to my wedding and it looks like I'm getting a cold sore.
Also, take an aspirin a day. Aspirin cuts the cold sore time in half.

Re: 8 days to my wedding and it looks like I'm getting a cold sore.
you can get a perscription for Zovarax ointment that if you use now it will be gone in a few days. you have to use these creams with in the first 72 hrs of symptoms in order for them to be really effective. I recommend the zovarax 5gm. Good luck joyce!!! ETA: Taking L-Lysine 1000 helps a lot in preventing and stopping cold sores. you can get that at CVS or any pharmacy

Your doctor can prescribe valtrex, its not just for herpes  if you take the valtrex right away, it will stop the outbreak!
