new herpes exposure


Recommended Posts

The last time I had a herpes panel was 11/2015 and it was negative. I slept with one person last year and did not have a problem. I am with a new partner now and we have been sexually active for about 6 months now. We have had unprotected sex in the past and have regular protected sex. We had unprotected sex again on August 9th which I started feeling pain and nausea the following few days. I was having back pain and had the chills so I went to the urgent care Aug 12th. I did a urine test and I tested positive for group b strep. I was given amox for 10 days. I started noticing blisters on my vagina then followed up with my obgyn on Aug 15h. I had a slight fever of 99.3, chills, swollen pelvic lymph nodes that hurt to the touch and burning since I had cuts, blisters, and ulcers. She did a culture on the sores and popped them. She also stated that i was positive fgor bacterial vaginosis and I had it for 3 weeks. Anyways, my culture came back positive for HSV2. She prescribed me aciclovir and zovirax cream to help and the sores went away by August 23rd but I still felt funny after but the dr did not see any visible sores. On the 23rd I did blood tests and these were my results: I have had 3 or 4 doctors confirm that I have recently been exposed to genital herpes and that this is a new infection. I have never had an outbreak before and my body reacted crazy to the exposure. I am a chronic hives patient since I was 8 years old so I know my body reacts quickly to foreign exposures. I just want to get an opinion from those who have herpes and medical experts what you think about my lab results.
