herpes isn't going to cause issues like this. follow up on things to find out what is really going on. don't get fixated on herpes as the cause.

This doesn't sound at all like genital herpes.  Herpes will not cause all over body itching as you've described plus you saw a provider when you had symptoms who didn't feel that they looked like herpes either.
