Herpes?

I have been going steady with my boyfriend for about 3 month. I've given him oral sex only three times.
I have never had any sort of herpes outbreak or anything of the sort.
But after about 22 days of my last oral sex experience, I have started to have the following symptoms:
- fever
- nausea
- headache
- 2 white bump(ish)s on my inner vagina --- these don't look puss-y at all and don't look like I could poke them and anything could come out. One is smaller, circlish and the other is more of a long oval.
       - these bumps don't itch at all, but they do burn a significant amoung
- sore throat, difficulty swallowing

I've had the fever, nausea, headache, and sore throat for about 4 days now and the sores for only a day

Do you think this is herpes?
I can't imagine that my boyfriend has it, seeing as he's only had one long-term girlfriend and i've only had one long-term boyfriend and one other sexual partner this past summer. But again, never any herpes outbreaks.
please help! I am freaking out!

i recommend going elsewhere for a 2nd opinion then if you still have symptoms. if you can be seen promptly by a dermatologist, that is probably the best next option.

many non-std things can cause us issues in our genital area. did they offer any idea of what they think is going on for you?

a blood test and a swab culture
they both came back negative

and if it's not herpes, which it looks like it isn't, what else could it possibly be?

it means you need to go and get checked out and get a better idea of what is going on.

well if he's never performed oral on you then whatever is going on, is not a std from him.  At this point go and be seen and get a proper work up done to find out what is going on and go from there.

you need to be seen promptly for a proper work up and testing to try to figure out what is going on.

did your bf perform oral on you or only you on him?
