Need to retest?

[Christopher2014]

I'm driving myself crazy thinking I have Herpes after receiving unprotected oral.
I have no symptoms of it...but little things make me fixate and worry like a pimple I found on my shaft...unsure of when I got it but I could have had it before this encounter for all I know. It is not red in the slightest and looks like other pimples I have had in that area from time to time.

I had a full battery test for all STDs and was negative for hsv1+2...testing was done 1 week post contact.

I have got outside the 20 day window with no symptoms having shown up but even getting a sore throat (when I know it was from singing) has me freaked out...I know there's a hypochondriac element at work here but Im scared all the same.

Would you recommend a retest or should I just stop worrying if no real symptoms have presented themselves by now?

Can you explain what a "bucket more" would consist of when considering HSV1 as a possible diagnosis Fleet? Thanks.

Thanks so much...it very well may be a fordyce spot just a bit more pronounced but I def have fordyce spots...thanks for the peace of mind...I was so worried after reading that some have herpes w no symptoms and worried I tested too soon.

Thanks Fleetwood20...you rock!

I see no reason to be concerned at all.

A primary infection does a bucket load more than a little pimple. You're fine to move on.

You sure its not a fordyce spot?
