Hi Ashley43730, So it sounds like your doctor Hasn't been really helpful. It might not be easy but I would try different doctor until you find one that wants to help you. They should also give you advice on were to find information. It actually could just be your diet. Drink plenty of water start to take vitamins to help build your immune system up. Look up the ultimate herpes protocol you can Google it. It's a lot of good information. Your symptoms sound like an infection Mixed with an outbreak but I'm no doctor. I hope you find a doctor that can better explain and detect the problems your having. Hope Things get better.
Herpes is diagnosed based on location. Cold sores on the mouth equal hsv 1. Genital herpes equal hsv 2 (even if you contracted it from someone who had cold sores and gave you oral).
I understand exactly how you feel. Was just diagnosed in January. I thought it was a dream. Was sick to my stomach. I thought I'd never find anyone. But fate kicked in...
I met my current bf on an online dating site (okcupid) once it seemed things were getting serious we shared with each other how we contracted the virus from a previous relationship. It was completely meant to be. Our relationship is not only normal but Way beyond that (I have found my soulmate). We still have an intimate relationship and don't have to worry about infecting the other person.
You will find someone and not let the virus ruin your life. There are also dating sites for people who have been infected.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
