Please help me  out someone. 

Okay, so I know I have herpes type 1. I was diagnosed via swab about a month ago. My initial OB wasn't really that bad at all. I experienced no itching, no burning when I peed and the only discomfort was when I crossed my legs and could feel the 3 ulcers. Just uncomfortableness. Was prescribed my 10 day dose of Valtrex and sent on my way. I currently have a 30 day bottle of Valtrex incase anything happened. (It's really crazy how incredibly expensive this medicine is!!) 

Keep in mind that I also suffer from pretty bad eczema down there, on my face and hands that temporarily flare up from time to time. However, me and my partner (who also has hsv1 as well)  had really rough and DRY sex. He fingered me when I was pretty dry and I believe this created a lot of friction and some abrasions. This was yesterday, I had no lesions or discomfort prior to this. No symptoms either. I woke up today and my vagina was really red and sore. I also noticed what appears to be a cut on the very inside of the entrance to my vagina. It doesn't burn when I pee or hurt to touch. It doesn't itch. It's just there. There are also little abrasions from my butt to vagina that are kind of sore. They do not look like ulcers at all, just small cuts. 

I also experienced the flu like symptoms with my initial OB and the only thing I've been is tired (due from full time job and full time school) 

It's only been a month since my initial OB and I'm scared that I'm having another one so soon. Which I hear is abnormal for people with hsv1 genital. Just when I was coming to terms with everything, I feel like this is another OB. Help me, I'm really really depressed :(

      Czy to opryszczka?

      By WilsoInAus · Posted

      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.

      Czy to opryszczka?

      By Zrozpaczona9 · Posted

      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

      Never had a history of Oral cold sores before, but have dated someone with them.  Thats very interesting about the test. This was my first full panel.  The large bumps have recently show up, its been about a few weeks when I noticed them. Again no pain nor fluids from them.
