Just Tested Positive...Help

I made a topic a couple days ago, now i have my results back, well two results. I tested Positive for HSV1- i think she said 1.29 my hsv-2 test wasnt ready yet. I also took cultures, my doctor said a bacteria culture did not show any signs of bacteria, but my herpes culture was not ready yet. I am so hurt, first time having a STD and its herpes. How often are test wrong? and what does she mean the bacteria culture was negative herpes is a virus right? so why would she give a bacteria culture? im very lost and confused can anyone help.

it's easiest for us if you just keep adding to your original post. this is asked in our read before posting post. from this point forward, just continue posting in this one. thanks!

at this point all you can do is wait for all your test results to come back. I know it's hard to wait but it's the best you can do.

yes herpes is a virus, not bacteria.
