Mixed results. help please

[pjm1022]

hey guys. 26 year old male new here. ive been having some symptoms and had mixed test results. heres a summary of my dilemma;

had intercourse with quesitonable female. 3 weeks after noticed a small scab or abrasion i thought. just one spot on right side where head meets. (ive since mentioned it to that girl and she said she got everything tested and its all good) though could be lying.

got a blood test not very long after. i had to call doctor and had to ask results. he said i would have called you if there was something. 

so i passed it off,  couple months later saw 2 of the same thing, same spot, just two smaller spots. went to try a different doctor trying to find professionalism . told them to test everything (i was freaking out in my head thinking syphilis or something) they called and reported everything negative.  so at this point im passing it off as abrasions. and stressing out still and avoiding sex out of fear. 

then couple months go by and same thing. went to see an better doctor. an infectious disease specialist. This was the only doctor who actually looked at it at this point. i know crazy right. what does it take to get a good doctor around here. 

so he was alot better. did a blood test. and urine too. he then called back i forget how long after and said "yeah it looks like you have been exposed at some point over 3 months ago" "do you want a prescription for anti virals". i said no.    i was at work when he called but i dont even know what type of hsv? 

so after this i just assumed hsv2. and just felt like shit.   i did have another symptom after later on this time was blistery cluster. did look more like hsv:/ . ive used apple cider vinegar  raw honey etc on these more recent ones.  

i need to call back and be told which type! if i do have it. the girl is insisting telling me everyhing is good! twice i asked.  2 out of 3 tests negative. between this and making myself not have sex its making me so stressed. what do you guys think?? friction from that intercouse/ masterbation friction. dry skin? actual herpes? i need definitive answer more than what that doctor said.  and he said it wasnt good enough for testing the actual sore. but the recent blistery one i could have i believe. but i was already convinced in my head.  im calling back that doctor tomorrow(monday) to hopefully see if he can explain the test and tell me which type. and i just read somewhere that it has to be the test that distinguishes between the 2 and to accept nothing else.  doctors just seem so incompetent.

The blood test results will tell you what you need to know. However you do need to see them. You are after the IgG results for HSV-1 and HSV-2. Get those and this will shed a lot of light.

The symptoms you describe are quite ambiguous and would not lead to a herpes diagnosis on their own.

thank you. i will be getting on top of this. ill just take another test and ask for that specifically. IGG for hsv

For sure that will do it... although you may not need to if you get results from the current test.

Remember it takes 3 months for antibodies to develop so your initial negative results make sense as its too soon after infection.  Yes drs dont know much and dont care because "its so common"

thanks. yeah the 2nd blood screening was about 3-4 months after. i had thought i was good to go at the moment. then another symptom couple months later. causing me to seek last doc who said looks like i was exposed. but no definitive 1 or 2. adding the fact that the woman is saying she got tested when i mentioned it the first time and is good(if the truth), its throwing me into more confusion.
