Is this Herpes?? I was drugged in a bar and cant remember

Posted , 2 users are following.

Im a 23 year old straight guy. Only been with 1 woman before. I was oit having some drinks exactly a week ago. Nothing over the top just a few drinks. Towards the end of the night, I couldn't remember much but do remember getting kicked out for drunken behaviour. I was found passed out in the street with almost no memory afterwards. Upon asking around and the little bit I do remember, there was about a 30 minute window which I don't remember or have any witnesses too. Didnt think anyhing of it, but 4 days later I spoke to the guy that found me (good stranger and his gf that paid a cab home for me), and he said that he was almost certain that I was drugged. Spoke with no slurred speech but couldnt stand up and looked very tired and kept passing out. 5 days after that incident I noticed some tingling in my groin, just inbetween my scrotum and thigh. Didnt think anything of it, but then a couple days later it got a little bit more noticeable and itchy. It doesnt hurt a lot but theres some very slight burning, tingling, itchyness and a bit of redness. The redness are like red lines. Im worried that someone took advantage of me in this state and I contracted herpes or something. Ive done a lot of reading since and it may just be psychological but the redness is what worries me. I feel it on both sides but the redness is only on the right side. Is this anything I should worry about?

    Unlikely anything. Half an hour isn't long. Were your trousers properly done up? Anything out of place?

      Yup everything was done up properly as far as I know, but I dont remember much from later in the night. And I was in a halloween costume overtop. A one piece zip up outfit with boots. So I know it was very unlikely anything happened, but im positove I was drugged and so was the other guy. So thats why Im so concerned with the symptoms. Although the redness has gone away mostly today and no burning. So maybe it was just from chafing or something. Ive just never felt this feeling before so so I was really concerned.

      If you had a Halloween costume on top, with nothing discovered out of place, then that seems even more unlikely that anything happened!

      Thanks for the support and reassurance! It must just be a coincidence then, but maybe ill still get checked considering the symptoms which might mostly be in my head lol
