They did a swab of it like you said but I still want to do the blood test
Hi, strep b symptoms are urinary track infections, fever and respirtory infections and your puss breakouts would not be consistant with strep b. To diagnose both strep b and herpes, the best way is a swab of the sore and with herpes it would need to be taken within 48 hours after they appear.
What tests did they do to confirm you have herpes?
