Itchy all over the body.

I had an encounter with a male.  I'm a male too.  We kissed and we were about to have sex but he didn't have a condom so, I didn't let him but he inserted the tip of his penis on my anus.  He didn't have any sore or blister.  Five week later I noticed that I had a bump that caused so much itching then I got more on my inner thighs.  Then all over my body got itchy and then I got the flu.  Then I called him because I was so scared that he transmitted me an STD.  I been crying since I found out that it could possibly have an STD. He told me that he didn't have any symptoms or itchy but he is the only person I have been with.   I did a lot of research and resulted to herpes.  I'm so scared to go get tested and come out positive.  All over my body I noticed really small red bumps where the itching happened.  I been itching for a week.  I don't have any blister or sores on my mouth or inside or on my genitals or anus.  But my inner thighs, legs, arms, and stomach have been so itchy.  Everyday I check my penis, my mouth, and anus but I don't see a blister or sore.  The bumps that appeared on my inner thighs look brown now and they don't get that itchy anymore but the rest of the body it's so itchy.  I have had finals exams and this for the past week.  I'm so stressed out and frustrated.  I want to know if I have it or not but I'm scared and I don't know how to tell my family and I'm scared I might get rejected because herpes will be in my body forever until I die.  I feel so ashamed and embarrassed.  I been keeping this for two weeks and I been feeling so emotional.

If you've never tested for herpes before, by all means get tested at some point to know your status.

have you had your gardasil shots for hpv too?

hey I went to the doctor today and she told me that I had eczema due to much stress and worrying.  Also, here in houston the temperature changes from 45 to 80 and she said that can be also too.  She checked my little bumps and said that it looked like eczema so she gave me some creams which help a lot.   I haven't have gotten tested for herpes but I will do one I soon as possible.
