so sorry that everyone here is affected by Herpes, but am also so glad that I am not alone!! I feel like "Typhoid Mary". Have not told anyone about my diagnosis except my (thank you so much for the parting gift) ex-husband. I search for clinical trials and news about a cure then get disappointed......Will try to be more uplifting in future posts but had to get that out.

Oh my gosh. I know exactly what you mean about the typhoid mary! lol I feel the same way! I have told only a few friends. And then wished I hadn't. (what if they blab??) I have felt like I will die all alone and never have another relationship again......until I came on here. I almost feel human again, knowing that there are so many others like me out there! I am glad you got that out of system, cause it helped me to get mine out too! I look forward to your future (and uplifting?) posts! lol

      Okay.... makes sense.... I hope it is helping.  Again, I would ask about a Rx for valacyclovir instead of acyclovir.... valacyclovir gets more acyclovir into your system than taking straight acyclovir.

      Is this HSV???

      Hi @Throwaway765 yes that all makes sense and you’ve pretty well reached the right conclusions except for a very significant fact!! You are right, receiving genital HSV-2 from oral sex is unheard of, just not feasible given how people have it and whether it actually sheds in infectious quantities or not. Safely rule this out. Now HSV-1; once you have this as you do orally, you have immunity against infection anywhere else on the body, it is also not feasible.  The symptoms you describe are also not related to herpes in the absence of lesions.

      Is this HSV???

      By Throwaway765 · Posted

      Thanks for your response! I received unprotected oral 10 weeks ago and immediately after had stinging in my glans and weird nerve pain. I am positive for HSV1 due to cold sores I got as a child, but as recent as 9 weeks after this exposure have tested negative for HSV2.    im nervous that I may have acquired hsv1 again on my genitals since HSV2 is rarely acquired from oral sex and doesn’t shed hardly at all, but haven’t seen any sores yet. Just weird symptoms and this started recently in my buttcrack when I was taking antibiotics.   Any advice or perspective would be greatly appreciated. @WilsoInAus

      Hi @Throwaway765 and welcome. There is absolutely no concern over this being related to herpes. Something must be concerning you as to the possibility of herpes… what is it?
