STD advise
I was looking for some advice. 6 years ago, my old doctor diagnosed me with genital herpes. I was devastated and very depressed. Despite my situation I eventually got over the depression and moved on with my life but it was definitely life altering. I found out 3 months ago that I was pregnant and I knew that the genital herpes could pose a problem during labor. I informed my OBGYN who tested me again and told me that the test was negative and that I never had genital herpes. I was relieve but also very angry with my past doctor. For six years, I lived with something I didn't have. I had to tell people I was in a relationship with which ended some and made people look at me differently. Should I look into a lawsuit? What would you do?
congrats new mommie why would he say you had herpes if the test didnt reflect it and if he did a test shouldnt he have double checked. did you get two test . but if the doc did cover his behind then i would say go for the gusto and win youor case girls. that would **** me off too. man that put you throught emotional stain and stress. well god gave you 2 blessings. goodluck and congrats again.
I personally would definetly look into it as this has cause you pain in your life which was unneccasary.Congratulations on your happy news (your pregnancy and your negative genital herpes test) and do what you feel is right.
