My name is Chrissy and I am 20 years old. I was diagnosed with herpes in

May 2005, right after Easter..I was dating the 2nd man (Jay)since my son was born and about 2 months into dating is when the herpes showed up and Jay denied giving it to me and sometimes acted like he was afraid me to I guess throw me off, I stupidly did not realize he gave it to me until I had broke up with him which was about 5 months later but he still tried to deny it and claim I gave it to him..

My sons father was in the AF and the only man I dated after him and before Jay is in the Military so no way could I of got it from anyone other then Jay...

I remember the day I found out I had it, the doctor was very ignorant and acted as if she was afraid of me which made me feel very upset and I remember crying for the rest of the day and saying in the car that I just wanted to die. Jay (guy who gave me herpes) is the one that took me to the doctors and I sat in the car crying then when I got home he asked my mom if I could go over to his place since I was so upset, it just makes me sick now looking back at that and thinking of me sitting in the car and being with him crying my eyes out and him knowing he gave it to me and sitting there not telling me the truth and even after we broke up he never admitted to it.

Here it is about 2 years later and I have just got back into the dating scene because I was so afraid of catching something else and I have talked to a few guys but they all turn me down after they find out what I have and it makes me so upset. I wonder if im ever going to get married or even have another child because my doctor said if I have a child it is possible they could get the herpes and because of that I do not want to get pregnant again due to the fear of unfairly giving a innocent child herpes.

Welcome. Those men who turned you down are obviously superficial, immature, jerks. You don't need those people. There are men out there that will love you even with herpes. Having herpes is a good way of weeding out those types of guys [to think of it positively], Because if someones not going to love you for EVERYTHING you are, than they are not worth it. As for becoming pregnant, there are tons of people who have natural births who have herpes and you can always get a c section. I wouldn't stress out about it. you'll find someone who really loves you.

Just as new

Hi, just wanted to tell you that you can have children. My doctor says that it is safest to have a c-section to prevent the risk of spreading it to your child, but my dilemma is you are always suppose to use condoms but how would I be able to get pregnant if I don't have unprotected sex. I am on suppressive therapy and have been for almost a year HELP!!

      HSV genital likely?

      By CHT · Posted

      Hello "FeelingLost".... your fears and concerns are understandable but, nothing you've described regarding the sexual encounter would cause you to contract herpes.... further, your symptoms are not herpes related.  Best of all, your doctor is correct, your results don't show any herpes here.  You can relax.... definitely have your GP take a look at things and see what might be causing the symptoms but, again, none of them are typical herpes related.  I wish you the best in terms of talking to your wife about this encounter.... hopefully she will understand and you both can work through this amicably.  We all make mistakes.... be careful not to beat yourself up too hard over this.... you can become so racked with guilt that you start imagining physical symptoms.  Best of luck.... and take care..... come back to the site if you have questions.

      HSV genital likely?

      By FeelingLost75 · Posted

      Hi (I’m really scared and feel really disappointed in myself and worried about my future), I had oral sex with a condom almost 3 weeks ago and a massage parlor. I also received a hand job at the same time prior to putting a condom on, also may have rubbed my penis on her back a little. Did not touch her genitals I don’t recall any sores on her back. After the event she handed me a pice of TP and after I took off the condom I wiped my penis head to clear away the excess ejaculation…this is where I suspect I got infected, she had just gone pee and wiped and maybe touched a sore or something and then I got it on my penis from the tp? Idk. I’m just flailing.   After this I’ve had discomfort on the skin below the head of my penis and 4 bumps for 2 weeks now, the bumps don’t seem to have changed in size. I also had frequent urination for about a week and have had dull pain in my groin on and off. I also have some pins and needles on the sides of my abdomen/trunk that get worse when I go out in the heat or get dehydrated. I’ve had a lot of trouble sleeping, likely due to guilt and shame and worry about the future.   so I got one test done at 10 days from the event (idk know if this can tell me anything… the doctor assured me it was 100% correct and I don’t have herpes. I was not physically examined). I got a full panel std. neg for everything. HSV-1 results: IgG 0.3 / HSV-2 IgG 0.9 hsv-1 IgM = 2.2 hsv-2 IgM = 3.0 (Reference V. Negative: Less than 9.0 Borderline: 9.0 to 11.0 Positive: Greater than 11.0) I have an appointment with my GP on Thursday, hoping he can help. Will likely go to a std testing service tomorrow to see if I can get in an antiviral proactively. Plan to get tested again this week.

      GHSV1 has be going crazy

      By TS4real · Posted

      May 13 ( day I will never forget).. a guy I was dating and I drank way to much and decided to have anal sex. We did use protection however, not enough lube, wasn’t done correctly and it was painful. So bad that I yelled out and fell off the bed. Anyway, oral was also performed on me anal and vaginal. Flash forward to 3-4 days after that. I was in the most intense pain I had ever felt. I went to a gyn she tool one look and said it looks like herpes. She swabbed me . 2 days after that, yes it’s HSV1 . I was still in pain, irritated anal area and vaginal area and It was unbearable.  today, I still have irritation and itchy and when I pass a bowel i’m in pain and the itch is crazy.     When I first was diagnoses the gyn gave me valtrex which I did not take bc I was in so much pain I could not move for 2 days.  Groin lymphs were swollen I had fever , tired etc.  I am wondering if I had taken the valtrex would it have kinda liked stopped the virus in it’s tracks enough to reproduce? Do people see a correlation between no more outbreaks and immediate initial valtrex  use ? I am 43, I never thought this wound happen as I am not a promiscuous person, I hardly date and I always use protection when I do have intercouse , have yearly std tests. I’m just so sad that i’m at this point right now . I’m trying not to get depressed but this is making my body feel miserable. I’m an avid runner and biker and mom of two teens. I feel like my life as I knew is over. I want to feel better already.
