I now exactly when I has infected. I already had a major hSV 2 genital primary outbreak. It was not fun. Now the lymph-nodes on my throat are swallowing and I have a sore throat and body aches. Am I going to have an HSV 1 oral now?

The only way to truly know is to have a type-specific test, when it's been long enough of course. Personally, I experienced the symptoms you describe with my primary genital HSV outbreak. In all honesty, I thought I had the flu. Everything hurt and ached, and I had swollen lymph nodes in my throat/neck area, I had a fever for days... I'm fairly certain my GHSV is type 2. It's definitely possible that the symptoms you're experiencing are associated with the primary outbreak you're having genitally. It doesn't necessarily mean that you have contracted anything orally.
