Herpes or not??

I have pretty much convinced myself that I have herpes also. I have not been tested for herpes but am going to get other STD's tested for in less than a week. I had a similar encounter with a unfamiliar female. All we did was she put her mouth on my penis for a few minutes and she stuck her finger in my mouth that had been in her vagina. I did not put my mouth or penis in her vagina. This happened on a Saturday. The following Thursday I had soreness on the underside of my tongue and my throat was red, including tonsils partially swollen. It has been over 3 weeks since I had those symptoms and my throat is still red and tonsils look swollen, a few white spots on them a week ago. My anus sort of itched for a few days but then stopped recently, i had a sore in my nose that seemed to be a painful pimple but after about 4 days it seemed to pop and went away.

I have been freaking out for the past month about what it could be. I have convinced myself it is herpes. I talked to the women i was with and she said she was clean STD wise but has never had any symptoms of herpes but also never been tested for it. My throat has never really been sore other than 2 days last weekend. It is just red and tonsils seemed to be swollen. If it wasnt for my throat and anus itching a few weeks ago, i wouldnt be so freaked out.

Does this sound like an STD such as herpes. ??

I have an appt this monday for an STD check, only thing is they do not do herpes test unless someone has a breakout or sores.

I did not even kiss her. The only thing I did was put my mouth on her breast, finger her, and the only thing she did was put her mouth on my penis and stick her finger in her vagina after rubbing it and stuck it in my mouth. A week later is when I had a red throat, soreness under my tongue...etc.

you did not contract oral herpes from her putting her finger in your mouth after it was in her genital area.

odds are this is either oral herpes from kissing this person or something completely non-std related.

have you seen your provider yet for a full work up for your symptoms?

it's most helpful when you just keep adding to your original post instead of makign new ones. thank you for your future cooperation with this.
