Wondering if I'm herpes carrier?

I went for a test after 6 months I stop sex with a lady. And I get positive for Herpes Type 1. Actually I'm planning to get married and create a family with my wife. After finishing all those antibiotic that the doctor gave me, im still worrying my sickness will pass to my wife and my "future" children.
So my question is,

1) is it possible to pass the virus to my family after the treatment ?

2) I still feeling my body is a bit weak and one of my lymph nodes is still swollen and my lips having a cold sore, is it a sign of HIV ? ( I went for HIV test but it shows negative for HIV )

3) Can HIV silence or hidden for many years , and shown up several years after ? ( even though the HIV test is negative currently )

Thank You Very Much Doctor

1. There is no cure for hsv so you have it for life. I bet it's an old infection from your youth. That's when most people get it.

2.no. this isn't hsv

3. No

Just don't kiss your future children if you have a cold sore
