herpes

by ineed2knowpls, Jul 18, 2008 09:36AM
I'm a married man and made the biggest mistake of my life. On July 3 rd I had sexual contact with a woman, in which we both performed oral sex on one another. No intercourse tho we may have rolled onto one another briefly which may have brought genitals in contact, though I don't remember for sure....

After 3 days and spending most of the day in the sun I noticed a white patch above my lip with a small red point. My first thought was herpes given the timing of my encounter. The white patch was not sore and still has not blistered, but still remain after two weeks...After reading all of the information on the internet I have noticed itching around the area and face. Also Im now sensative in the groin area and noticed white spots at the back of my throat, which seem to have gone away. There's no sign in the genital area other than the slight discomfort.....

I know its not possible to diagnose over the net but in your experience what are the chances. My doctors looked at the white patch and said "it does not look like herpes to him but we'll keep an eye on it.." I really hope this is just anxiety, but until my swab comes back or blisters show up (other than the white patch on lip) all I have is time....

If I was exposed on the 3rd what are the chances It would be showing up right away or remaining asymptomatic....

Just a white patch and no obvious blisters isn't likely to be herpes.

Have you ever had a herpes blood test to know your status?
