Is this herpes ? Please help, My anxiety is through the roof.

Posted , 8 users are following.

Over a week ago i had a very high fever and cough , then this little bump or get developed out of no where. it itched and stung like a cut , but now no longer hurts or itches. A few other bumps have popped up, that dont hurt nor itch. Ive been sleeping with a new guy for almost 2 months, but he says he gets regular blood tests for his heart condition and him having an std is very unlikely. My fever seemed like a regular bug, as im still getting over the cough & sore throat now. Please let me know your thoughts. image

      i went to the clinic earlier today .. the woman who tested me first said it could be type 1 since its so mild .. but when i asked again she said she doesnt think its an std because i was in no pain whatsoever, and my partner has no sores at all, anywhere. So im very confused on whats going on .. my swab tests will be here friday so lets hope for the best.
