I feel the burning and inching but no bumps and I just dont know what to do anymore!!!! It drives me crazy the pain never goes away its always there!! I just want some relief and know whats going on with my body for once!!! I dont understand Why my body isnt healing at all maybe I have a bad imune system or something and I have felt so alone in this for so long!!! I dont know if my country does antibody test for it because i have never got one done or never was told to get one. I have been pretty depressed and have been crying alot because I have made such a big mistake I have been having sex with guy for a while now and I never told him that I thought I had this I didnt know how to tell him at the time we met and now I don't how to tell him. I wish at the time I could just told him now I have feelings for him and I cant even fathom not talking to him again and him hating me for ever.I really hope I didnt infect him,we did use protection. I feel so guility.I feel like the only one on this site who has ever done something so stupid from what I have read you were all smart enough to tell the person. I know the right thing to do is tell him but how can I do it? he going to hate me and never speak to me again and please dont judge I feel bad enough. I just need some support right now please help!!!
Well, you should first go and get checked and make sure it is herpes. You don't want to bring yourself down or jump to conclusions. See a doctor and get your answers, then talk to this man. You need to tell him, regardless how it turns out. If he truly cares for you then he will be understanding. I was with a man for 2 1/2 years and had herpes the whole time and didn't know. He got tested and was negative. We had sex unprotected. So it's a tricky thing. Just be positive
They can do a blood test even without an outbreak. Did you ever get any meds? It's hard to have to tell someone that you may have herpes but you owe him that. If he cares he will be there for you and stick by you in this trying time. Don't be so down on yourself, you aren't the only person to think they
might have it and have been unable to tell their partner. Everything will be okay! Wishing you all the best!!
Hello Noelle2212
Please, please don't feel badly. This is a very broadly dispersed infection and so many people who have it show not symptoms at all which is how you probably got it.
My husband brought it to me many years ago and I know he never had symptoms but he was promiscuous. We have since divorced but not all because of that.
When I first had outbreaks I knew nothing about the disease and had never heard of it. I thought I wasn't being clean enough in my periods so started washing everytime I changed a pad. That didn't help and I thought well they are just infected hairs. Well, an article came out in a magazine and I read it and took it to my Dr. and told him I thought I had it. He said to come in next time I had an outbreak which I did and I did have HSV II. I don't even know how long I had it.
I am on Valacyclovir everyday to stop outbreaks but I still can have symptoms like you but no lesions. I am right this minute dealing with vulva itching and burning and soreness. I had an exam and a culture done which showed nothing. I am 71 years old so it could be a menopausal thing, but I don't know yet. Will see Dr. again on Monday. Many of us are sharing what you are going through and you shouldn't feel ashamed. Just learn from your mistake and try not to get involved like that again and buy your own condoms and give one to your boyfriend when you tell him ( and please do tell him) and if you break up with him do the same if you decide to have sex with anyone. There are more diseases out there today and many varieties of the same ones. Protect youself little one, you only have one life and God wants you to take care of it so you can serve Him. He loves you and forgives you. Now, go on and live life. Ask your Dr. to do whatever test he can to help you find out what is wrong with you. It may not be Herpes. Maybe something else. But, do find out.
Passing love onto you and prayers for a full recovery.
