confused

I'm confused to say the least. If a guy gave me oral sex when there was a coldsore in the stages of developing(he told me he had a full blown one about a week and a bit later and refused to kiss me which was a good thing) would I get genital herpes type 1 possibly? Why would it show up on my beltline? I had these sores that the doctor said was herpes but he then didn't even test my blood for the virus(I only found this out when I went to get the results) so he retested the blood(which came back negative obviously, he didn't care one bit, terrible doctor) and this was about I'm going to say about month post exposure that the sores developed. They were painless, red and after a week they turned purplish brownish and they had a somewhat opaque clear center that on one of the sores turned red in the center almost like it had been picked off and they scabbed over(just one cluster of 3 sores) and disappeared completely. Anyways I went back about 4 months post exposure and got tested again which cane back negative, now the doctor put me on anti virals so I wonder if it affected the results or if not enough time had passed? I have never had another outbreak since and worry I may be aysmpomatic.

The stigma arose in the 1980s. Before then, herpes was not clinically identified as an STD. Once researchers realised that it could be passed via sex, the media reported on herpes in a negative, fear-mongering way. Zovirax was manufactured soon after and ran many commercials promoting the need for meds, which didn't help matters.

If the test comes back positive for Type 1, you can either tell future partners that you have the cold sore virus (no need to specify where, imo) or say nothing at all. How many people even know their Type 1 status or bother to say anything, unless they get bad, frequent cold sores? Type 2 is a different matter, so you are very lucky if Type 1 is all you have, which it may not even be either!
