Could This Be Herpes? I'm about to go NUTS! HELP!

Hello!  Here's my scenerio:
June 7-15:  Had protected vaginal sex & unprotected oral sex with partner of 2 years
June 19:  Had unprotected vaginal sex & oral sex with partner I hadn't slept with for a year, noticed a slight discharge a week later, used otc cream to get rid of possible yeast infection
21 days later, July 10-16:  Had extensive unprotected oral sex & vaginal sex with new partner
July 18:  Had unprotected vaginal & oral sex with one night stand after both of us had been extensively drinking.  I think he didn't *** inside me the1st time but the 2nd time he might have.  
Next day:  felt really tired, was hoarse & had dry cough for about 3 days.  
Monday: started period, was normal
After period ended:  Noticed slight discharge, constant burning in urethea area, nausea & dizziness, constant headaches, pain in lower abdominal & back, tingling all over body, hot flashes & chills, cold/chest, like I have a cold, tired & fatigue, can't sleep & eat, sore throat, mouth feels yucky but I don't have any cold sores, pimple on neck but I always get a pimple here and there
July 28:  Went to hospital, UTI, Yeast, Trich, Chlamydia & Gonnorrea test were negative...took 1 time dose of Zithromax just in case
Called gyno doc, can't fit me in however, I have my annual appt. on the 26.  Does this sound like Herpes??  Should I go immediately to the hospital & let them test me for herpes???  Please HELP!!!!  I am 43, and shouldn't even be having sex like this!!!  I haven't had any sex since July 18 & don't plan on it any time soon...again, HELP!!!

Checked down there today....lesion really don't look like a blister & nothing has opened.  I'm just feal real hot in the skin!!!!  Still have that burning sensation like I have a UTI or chafed down there but I don't see any lesions!!  I seen about 3 pimples under my arm but no other signs???  I  can't wait to go to the doctor....I think I'm worrying just a tad bit much....can some of these symptoms just be anxiety or paranoia????  I felt guilty right after I slept with day 28 guy because I was under the influence of alcohol & it shouldn't have happened!!  However, I don't want to be in denial either!!!

I would definitely get the blister checked out. It will most likely open if it is a herpes lesion and be painful to the touch. Get it tested to make sure. He could be, but just being tired and cold isn't enough to tell.

Were you positive for Herpes???  Can this lead to HIV???  I checked down there today and I think I saw like a blister or something...I didn't really see anything else inside.  I literally feel sick...when I seen that blister, I bout passed out and got really hot, sweaty and nervous!!!  One of the guys I slept with the one July 10-16, he was complaining about being tired and having a cold...I wonder if he's the carrier???

Not to scare you but this is the way I felt when I got my initial diagnosis. I thought I had a really bad UTI, because it burned so bad when I peed.I also had the flu like symptoms and slight discharge. But I had a lesion, have you checked yourself for any lesions in the vaginal area. The doctor told me the reason it burned when I peed is that the lesions were inside as well and they are open sores so that is why it hurt so bad. Don't have any more sex until you get tested. They initially gave me antibiotics too which didn't help a darn thing and everything just got worse over the next few days and then I think I had 8 lesions when I went to my gynecologist that Monday and that's when I got my definitive diagnosis.
