Pretty certain i have herpes

hello friends. wednesday night i was really tired after work and noticed i had a single blistwr at the base of my pee pee. i also saw a big red bump on the shaft, bug i suspect that may be a big bite that coincidentally appeared at the same time as the blister. both are itchy and kind of burn when i itch them. peeing is just fine. and then thursday morning i felt like garbage. fatigued, a lot of sweating, tender lymph nodes at the groin, head and body ache all day, the works.

for years ive subscribed to tge notion that herpes is nothing at all for most people, and really not a big deal for those that do show symptoms. for the blister itself on my penis, that is nothing at all.

but the fatigue, aches, etc are really a bummer actually. i feel a lot better today but still not 100%.

should i expect that those symptoms will persist with future outbreaks?

i havent even been sexually active in over a year so im not sure how this happened, buy i just really think is herpes.

thanks friends

are you able to get tested anytime soon? a year since sex your blood test should be really accurate.

also if it is, its pretty hard to say what future outbreaks will looks like as everyone is different. i will say, from what i’ve read the flu like symptoms are usually just the initial outbreak.
