I was diagnosed with HSV2 on April 13th. A couple of months ago I was dating this guy for like a month, but we had talked online for over a year so we pretty much knew everything about each other so it was not awkward on our first date. We really get along well, but we quit seeing each other, because of some minor issues. It was weird really. Anyways, I had a one-night-stand with another guy like a month after being with this guy (which is not like me, but that's besides the point)... and boom 4 days later I knew what I had. Sure enough... just the other day we started talking as friend's again and he was like... "I am still attracted to you. We should hang out and try to get to know each other better.." I was like omg here we go. First time disclosing, but I trust him. He was really upset, but I went over and hung out with him just as friend's. We were drinking and he cooked me dinner and everything like he used to. He couldn't help but sit close and like put his hand on my leg. It was like he was sweeter than ever.... and we have so much chemistry. Well, I ended up emailing him and telling him how much fun I had and that I did still like him. Well, I know he would never go for it, which is fine because eventually someone will. I like to google my dates AIM names and such just to see what pops up. Well, I knew he had a date.com profile or whatever.... and sure enough I looked and he was active within 24 hours. It makes me just that much more mad at the person that gave it to me (supposedly he didn't know...but whatever). What a weird feeling. Oh well, life goes on. At least we will still be good friends. Who knows, maybe he is one of the people who doesn't know he has it.

One more thing. It has been 2 weeks and 2 days since my diagnosis... and if anyone newly diagnosed is reading this. I PROMISE you it will get better. I am on Acyclovir for suppression and haven't really been that upset in a few days. I never thought that I would feel better emotionally :) Sorry this is so long, I just had to get this off my chest.

Did you use a condom in your "one night stand"?

i dont think saying 'it wouldnt matter' is even remotely correct

a condom is not 100%

that was what was trying to be said

      Is this a herpes blister on my eyelid? I think I transmitted hsv1 from my genitals to my eyelid

      By tbc122 · Posted

      https://imgur.com/a/cVi8yJY 2 weeks ago I had unprotected oral sex. Few days later I wake up with a stinging sensation in my urethra. I don't have any blisters, lesions or redness, my penis looks completely normal from the outside, but the stinging in my urethra is always there. Urinating doesn't make the pain worse. From the research I've done and how my body feels I'm pretty sure I caught genital hsv1. To make matters worse I think I transmitted it to my eyelid by touching my infected penis and then my eyelid which did develop a blister. Can anyone look at my lower eyelid and tell me if it looks anything like herpes?  I forgot to add that the blister is painless, but my eye is a bit watery. Other than that it's fine and my eyesight is good. Considering how this all developed in a matter of a week after I had unprotected sex it can't be much else than herpes..

      Hey I see that they also sell the pill form in 100 mg and 500 mg form. Do you think this is as affective? They have the regular and extract version of the pill. Which would you think is the right one to get? And how many pills per day to get the same effect of say 16 seeds?

      How accurate is a blood test for herpes

      By scurrred · Posted

      I had an IGG test  and the ranges were out of range and high  HSV 1 was 42 and HSV 2 was 19 so I guess it was accurate but the problem now is I can't figure out when or who I got it from. In 2018 to 2019 when I was with my ex I was STD tested but not sure if herpes was included but my ex was supposed to get tested but refused. I experienced some trauma with him and didn't date until a year and a half later so I'm confused. The guy I dated after the ex who didn't want to be tested I told them a week ago about my results he was trying to be there for me and understanding,I told him to get tested but to request a herpes blood test , because he had no noticeable lesions or bumps ever is what he said and I never noticed any on him now he has shut down all his social media and I can't reach him. Hoping he's okay, I feel bad because in 2018 I did have what I was told it was an abrasion that tingled but at my doctor the day I was tested they told me it wasn't herpes but I think it was only a visible diagnosis. I keep having it reoccur from time to time

      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.
