If it's been at least 3 months since the encounter in question, get the blood test when you can. make sure it's type specific.

i got a culture done they said it was + but then called back a few days later and said i had to come in again to get another one because the tests didn't go through or something but i travel so much i couldn't make it back and i don't have health insurance so its super hard to get an appointment random clinics and every time i've gotten the little sore it goes away in like 3 days and i never can get to a clinic in time to test it and i was told the blood tests are not correct a lot of the time...
so what testing did you have done so far? has any of it come back +? did you have blood tests or lesion cultures of your symptoms? How long ago was the encounter you are worried about?
yes, natural cures is a scam.
I don't know of any cures in new zealand testing at the moment.
