    well usually when you have symptoms they swab them. so you should get them swabbed, that way you can also get some antivirals.

    Unfortunately it does appear that you have genital herpes. The way they show up in clusters and they are ulcers is pretty consistent with the herpes virus. I recommend you go to another clinic ASAP so they can put you in antivirals and confirm what type of HSV you have.. Good luck, it isnt the end of the world like many people think!

      Please don't think like that, it is not the end of the world. I understand that it can be scary but there are so many people in this position currently, or who have gone through this who can help you. Everything will be okay.

      Everything will be okay. Please seek some help if you are feeling suicidal. SO many people have herpes and live perfectly normal lives. It gets easier over time I promise. I've learned to see it as a blessing in disguise, anyone that judges you for it isnt worth your time!

      Many people with herpes still find love, your life is not over. I've read many stories about people in loving relationships. It's just casual sex needs to change, as you need to notify partners about it.

      You'll be okay, I promise.
