Yah well you my in fact have something but herpes isn't it. Your skin changes so much from day to day. Anxiety + heat rash or well honestly it could be anything. Im shure you have noticed just how much your skin changes everyday. And now that you are looking your seeing stuff. I look at myself every day also. And found out my skin reacts to alot of stuff like deodorant, tooth past, for a rash to come and go that quick is normal. 12 weeks is good time to get tested.

I will repeat that there is absolutely no chance that your anal itching etc are due to herpes. Re-read my replies above. If you remain concerned, stop screwing around with this or any other ocmmunity forum and see a doctor.

This is the common time line
1-4 days till first signs of symptoms. 1-4 days of symptoms till blisters. Blisters start off as red patches and slowly make blisters. Blisters pop and have a yellow scab. Clear liqud will slowly flow out of it. It will start to heal. If you have ben looking since day one you will not miss it. For hsv2 first outbreak will last 2-6 weeks tops. Olney 20% dont have sores in the first 3 months. But no sores no symptoms. Plus you can get tested now the number slowly gos up. Youll have your answer. The symptoms are due to the virus moving on your nerv cells. Thats why we can say 1-4 days bec we can feel them moving out.
