Have no idea

I am now a divorced single mom. I was married for 3 years, in the relationship for 6. I remember a possible outbreak while I was planning my wedding but nothing before that. I had an outbreak while I was pregnant and the Doctor told me it was a pimple. Which could have been a grave error as I found out... My X-husband came to me and told me that his rash was diagnosed as herpes, two weeks after I served him with divorce papers. 6 months after I asked him for a divorce. He had found out 4-5 weeks earlier, but didn't feel comfortable telling me.

I had recently started a relationship with someone, who I had to tell this news to, before I had a chance to digest it. Of course it wouldn't have been an issue had my X told me immediately. We were tested. I have it, the boyfriend doesn't, yet he stayed with me and has been supportive, and unaffraid of contact. Turned out my sister and her husband have it too. As much as it seems common, it doesn't make me feel better when I have to constantly scrub my hands around my child year old in constant fear of passing it to her somehow.

Now, over a year later, my relationship may be ending and I am so affraid no one else will accept me. We had split up for a short time and I was fixed up with someone, who was "crazy about me" until I told him about the Herpes. He never called again. But I don't feel bad for telling him. I have to be honest at the very least.

I still have no idea how we got it. My x's old girlfriend may have given it to him but he won't admit it, not that it matters. I can't cure it, so why kill myself worrying about how it happened?

Thank you for listening. I just found this site today and it is good to know you're not alone. God Bless.

Lasmom,

I happend to read an old post of yours, and your concerns for passing it to your child.......I too have a child and wash my hands like crazy.

I need to talk to someone about this....thanks

If you get a member name you can send me a private message, or give me your email address, I'd love to talk with you, anytime.

My daughter got a crazy diaper rash right after I was diagnosed - I freaked and asked the pediatrician if I gave it to her. I've come so far thank God! Now I just wish I knew how to get her to brush her teeth!!!

Parents need parents.....to be better parents.

      Hey @Zrozpaczona9 that looks like folliculitis to me, that’s independent of the question of herpes. The doctor is wrong in the sense that a negative IgG test is beyond reasonable doubt that you do not have herpes. It is a small percentage of people for which a false negative occurs. The doctor is right to take a swab to increase your confidence that there’s no herpes present. I’m sure you’ll have your result soon.

      Hey @WilsoInAus miałam dzisiaj wizytę u dermatologa, gdyż dostałam zmian w pachwinie, w trakcie wakacji nad morzem. Udałam sie tam ze zmianami w postaci strupów. Powiedział ze nie można wykluczyć opryszczki mimo negatywnego wyniku Hsv igg i zalecił wymaz z pochwy na Hsv i inne choroby. Wytłumaczyłam mu że zmiany zamieniają się w strup, ale nie ma w nich płynu, więc zalecił badanie śluzu pochwy na hsv PCR, zastanawiam się czy ma to sens, i czy wirusa można wykryć na podstawie tego badania w wydzielin z szyjki macicy. Z góry dziekuje za pomoc

      In this forum we will discuss does lume work Lume is paraben-free and uses several natural ingredients like Aloe barbadensis leaf juice, tapioca starch, and Maranta arundinacea root powder (also known as arrowroot powder) to control odor and sweat. One of the key Lume deodorant ingredients is mandelic acid, an AHA found in skin care products, which also has an antibacterial effect.

      Ibuprofen medicine is a painkiller. Can you take ibuprofen on an empty stomach  Some people take medicine empty stomach which is not good for our health. Because painkiller kind of medicine is very strong and can harm your liver. Medicine makes many strong ingredients. like Lactose, corn starch, hypromellose, sodium starch glycolate, colloidal anhydrous silica, magnesium stearate, sucrose, talc, titanium dioxide (E171), and carnauba wax.
