I am 5 days away from getting my test exam of having a positive or negative result of genital herpes . I was with my partner on a perfect date, and as you all must know... sex is not planned it just happens. Did use protection, however it was the first time ever, and this happened. When I started to get a bump I thought it wasn't so serious, but couple days pass and it starts to burn when I pee. The day I go to the doctor she tells me that it is smiliar to herpes. I ball my eyes out, and those few hours, I was depressed felt like a piece of nothing. Further along the day though I told my closest family, and they are supporting and giving me hope in which ever path I deserve to learn a lesson. Any other related stories I would like to hear how you are surpassing it, or vise versa. Remaining calm ✊.

    Have you contacted that person AMD asked them about their status?

    Right now you're in a state of shock, be prepared for results coming back positive, because you're going to feel devastation. It is a grieving process for sure and we all go through the stages, but as tie goes on it dies get better.

    So you only had that one bump?

      Yes they said they don't have anything that's visual or pain of any kind. I really don't understand why it happened to me only. I know that when I see those results and hear how I'm going to be taking meds my whole life for a simple act, I will be unprepared and just disappointed. No I have four two in the back and front, but the pills are drying them out.

      Because hh either passed it to you by giving you oral sex or if it's hsv 2, he's an asymptomatic carrier. Thateams he gets no signs or symptoms. Who knows what makes some handle the virus better. I had a horrific reaction to the virus, w severe neuropathy.. Trust me hun, yours isn't that bad. Girls on here wanna die the pain is so unbearable... So your immune system isn't doing to bad handing it. Just relax and don't be so hard on yourself... It's normal to feel the way you do. Just be patient.

      Thank you so much, this website is great by seeing others going through the same and surpassing this unfortunate situation. It is painful, and burns very bad at times. The pills are working though. So as I get older the outbreaks will be less frequent?

      You should have less obs over time, but everyone is different.

      Soak in Epsom salt baths ad much as possible during symptoms. Apply a heavy coating if Vaseline to sores to help w friction and when you pee, keeping them dry is a wives tale and no medical stuff can back it up. The sores will be present regardless if dried or not, if the virus is still present wet or dry! Don't feed into the fallocy and you will get much needed relief . sprsujng bactine numbing spray in first will help.. Sting at first, but it'll help. Also wrap a cold pack in paper towels and place between your legs when resting.. 800mlgs of motrin every 4hrs will help as well. The rest, yij gotta just ride it out. Just know there is an end and peeing in a shallow bath will help too.
