Herpes hvs2 a pretty weird and confusing story
Posted , 5 users are following.
I just got diagnosed hsv-2 one week ago. I had an unprotected sex with a guy when I was really drunk and 2 days after, I've got severe ulcer around genital area and it hurts so bad , so I went to the doctor and got tested( a swab and still waiting for my blood test result), then my doctor told me I had hsv-2 and it's gonna be forever. I felt I wanna kill myself at that time, cause I kinda like the boy I slept with but he didn't really message me afterwards.
I tested sti one months ago( before that I've only had sex with my ex), and my doctor said I was safe, but I don't know if they tested herpes or not, cause I don't have any syndrome.
Okay, so back to the topic, my doctor said it's probably the guy that I had the one night stand with, gave herpes to me , because it fits the common sense( if you got infected , the first outbreak will be in 2-7days), so I got my first outbreak after two days( I've mentioned before). However, I told the guy that I had sex with, and he got tested , and he's clean!!!! I was so confused and embarrassed, cause I kinda blamed him before he got his results. Is it possible that I had herpes but I didn't give it to him ? And how to explain my first outbreak ?its right after we had unprotected sex, but he's clean? I was so confused

there's a special test for herpes which the result will come negative if you do a normal std test , the guy who you have had a one night stand with must test for herpes and not for std's.

sti test won't detect herpes , when was the last time you had sex before the one night stands ? sometimes herpes takes longer than 7 day to emerge.

Depends which blood test he had done. Also, did he show you his results? I wouldn't take his word for it.

he took a swab test, its so weird cause he doesn't have any syndrome and why his doctor took a swab , but I told him he should take a blood test, but ive done what I need to do.

thanks so much, you've provided some much useful information in this forum, you're our hero seriously. I've already told the two guys that I had sex with that I had herpes, they seems not to give a s**t about it, so I guess I finished my part of job.
?However, recently, I met a guy, we liked each other and he seems really nice to me, but right now I'm so afraid of having any kinds of relationships cause I don't wanna infect anyone and I don't know when I should tell him (definitely wont have sex with him without telling him I have hsv2). what should I do? cause I searched and It shows that condom wont protect him being infected for 100%, should I take some medicines? I cant find much information about what should people who have herpes do when they are in a relationship with someone doesn't have herpes.
thanks !

Thanks for the kind words.
You are right that condoms don't offer 100% protection, and there are meds you can take daily to suppress the virus. When taken in this way, it is known as suppressive therapy. Same herpes meds as for first outbreaks, just taken daily. Unfortunately suppressive therapy isn't 100% either, but together with condoms and avoiding sex during potential breakthrough recurrences, the risk of transmission is significantly reduced. You can Google the CDC genital herpes treatment guidelines for further info.
