i was recently diagnoised with genital hsv1. i got it from my boyfriend through oral  sex . i have read that if you have oral herpes it's not possibe to get it genitally. i sometimes get cold sores when i catch a cold and so does my boyfriend. could it have been transfered from his mouth to my genitals even though i already have hsv1 since childhood. or was the blood test i took inaccurate and i have hsv2.

How did they diagnose you with hsv1? Did they do a lesion culture and typing or active sores?  did they only do a blood test?

Has your bf been tested for herpes to know his hsv2 status?
