Hi, the handjob is not a herpes issue nor would having genital concerns be associated with you giving her oral sex. That leaves us with the protected intercourse. First time outbreaks would be at point on contact like your pubic mound area so you can rule out contracting herpes on your shaft which was covered in explaining the red bumps.
Having 2 low positives for hsv2 with a negative hsv1 (ruling out cross-reactivity) could be a bid of a concern, i can only advise to test one more time and preferably the Western Blot.
Under normal advise, 2 positives would be considered conclusive if they did not fall into the false positive range.
Thank you Life for such a quick response and your valued feedback.
In your opinion then, it sounds like this exposure 3 months ago may not be the event when contracted, assuming it is positive. Perhaps an encounter prior to the one months ago.
I've read about the Western Blot but it appears it's difficult to get the test done by your primary doctor. Is doing it by mail the only way?
Again , thank you Life....gives me comfort being able to talk to somebody about this.
Realy hard to say at this point. test again to confirm
