possible herpes exposure

Its been about 6 weeks since a protected vaginal sex encounter with a woman who i did not know, and there has been no blisters or lesions i would recognize as herpes but i been having the symptoms of itch, pain on lymph nodes but no swelling, night sweats random not all the time and no fever just at 97 which is mild to no fever, should i be worried of herpes from this woman she said she was clean of stds and i should be safe but i guess my guilt and anxiety are playing woth my head and i make all those symptoms appear. Also the condomn never broke but it did tried falling off since i couldnt hols a full erection when having vaginal sex so her fluids went inside because there was something else besides my semen thanks

No HSV1 test results are no issue for HSV2, if anything, they cause false positives.

Herpes symptoms are visible blisters right? So if i haven't seen or feel any blisters or vesicles in my genitals since the possible exposure does that mean i had low risk of hsv2 ?  I have hsv1 and the antibodies are high can that somehow relate to a new hsv2 infection

Hi, before any flu like symptoms appear, a sore would develop first. Your condom protected sex was very low risk and if your position did not make any genital rubbing contact outside the condom. there was zero risk.
Herpes symptoms appear is the first week.
