I got hsv 1 and 2...anti-biotics?

you likely had some sort of secondary bacterial infections that the antibiotic would have helped with. But your doctor is right, antibiotics don't do a thing about viral infections. As for the blisters on your lips, it can often take up to a week to ten days for the valtrex to dry them up, taking the antibiotic just coincidentally occurred about the time those blisters were due to heal anyway.
