as we've already told you many times, no reason to think herpes is the cause of your symptoms.

At this point this post is going nowhere since you keep on insisting that you have herpes and everything is due to herpes. Unless you get a + lesion culture, I'm going to ask you to stop asking questions. We've given you more than enough help at this point and I doubt anything we ever say to you is going to make a difference. Also your story has had  many inconsistencies in it and I just don't feel that it's worth our time to keep discussing your situation.

follow up with your medical providers as needed to try to get to the bottom of what is going on. I know it's difficult when you don't have insurance but really nothing else we can do to help you.

Could you post the results for those tests as well as the type you had done so we can see if you were properly tested and if you may need more? Never assume you have herpes until you get a clear answer.

Can you answer the question? Have you been diagnosed? Then I will correctly answer any questions you have. Until then I'm not going to sit here and explain to you things when you may in fact not have herpes. That would be a complete waste of time for you and myself.

Tracey have you even been diagnosed? We can sit here and guess symptoms all day, but until you have officially been diagnosed with herpes should you come back with questions on symptoms. I'm afraid there is nothing more we can do to help you but tell you to see a provider and see what's going on

Heroes can cause nerve pain, but not the pain you are having. So stop looking at herpes as a reason for your symptoms. You are fishing. Tracy have you been officially diagnosed with herpes?!

herpes does not cause the kind of pains you are having.

Yes indeed I am aware that herpes lives in the spinal ganglia dear. Your symptoms do not sound like herpes. Your testing is negative according to what you are posting now which definitely is far different from your original posts.

At this point, unless you get a + lesion culture in the genital area, really nothing we can do to help you here.  As was recommended by franklinandbash - by all means pay to post to Terri Warren on her forum if you want further help with your particular situation.

No one is the top for anything and all of us need for more update and more knowledge in our life because we are a human plus no one is perfect. That does not mean I do not respect Grace or others but we are here to help each other.

Thank you.

Tracey,

Grace clearly does not need to research more on herpes. She is top of the line when it comes to herpes and has done more research and has more knowledge than me or you will ever have in our lifetime. You clearly do not believe the advice given on this board. There is absolutely nothing more this forum can do for you. I personally will not answer anymore of your questions as I believe if you cannot listen to Grace, you surely will not listen to my advice, or anyone who posts on this matter. I would normally tell people who do not follow the advice given on this forum to post to Terri Warren to feel more confident, but I am afraid you would question her and her advice would be exactly what Grace has already told you. I am in no way trying to confront you. The facts are there. It's time to start moving on from herpes. Have you even been officially diagnosed if you have herpes? From your latter posts until now it is very confusing. In fact, after reviewing your latest posts until now, you have gone from being a female who was diagnosed with herpes from a culture test to a male who has diagnosed himself without even seeing your medical provider. By all means you have every right to question the advice given on this forum, but by doing so you make our advice very meaningless and let me be the first to tell you that we can no longer help you. The best thing to do now is to
   Be seen by your provider for your symptoms.
There is nothing more we can say.

I do not have this pain from sitting. All this symptoms happened after sex contact. And you are the first one said you do not believe the nerve pain is related to herpes. I think you will need to read more and research for that cause the HSV lives in the Spinal Cord.

I'm still respect your opinion cause it a free forum to help each other.

Thank you.

no I do not.

so many things can cause the pains you are having. sometimes it's even as simple as sitting in an improperly adjusted chair more often than usual combing the net for advice.

none of this new info means much of anything as far as making me reconsider that you might have herpes.

continue to follow up with medical providers as needed for your symptoms.

none of this sounds like herpes. really , just because it's below the belt doesn't mean it's herpes going on.

regular herpes viral cultures require active symptoms with fluid in to culture, pcr doesn't.

I realize you are posting on another forum where folks will give out very wrong information and encourage folks to obsess that they have herpes. Don't let them keep leading you down the wrong road here as to the cause of your symptoms - it's not worth it.  There comes a point where you have to believe your testing and start looking for other causes. You are incredibly unlikely to have genital herpes causing these symptoms. Continue to be seen regularly by a dermatologist at this point to try to get to the bottom of things.

as I've said previously to others here, in over 10 years of being very active on various herpes forums online, out of all the folks who obsess that they have to have herpes despite continued negative blood tests and negative lesion cultures, only 1 or 2 has ended up being confirmed as having herpes eventually. Most others find other causes for their symptoms.

Can they culture them (Not PCR) even without fluid ?
I told before by the nurse they need to have fluid to swab it... Is that correct ?

Thank you
