i've had two tests so far 1 swab (i did shower and clean it right before i left home) and 1 PCR blood test (I had just finished a 3 day course of valtrex). Both came back negative. Now its 10days after my intial outbreak healed and its come back worse!! wtf do i have! I just did another viral and bacteria swab today so hopefully that will tell me but its so stressful image
