Possible Herpes

[whiteshadowcgb]

Here's the time line...

Day ONE  unprotected sex
DAY THREE vaginal burning
DAY FOUR:  vaginal burning tried Monostat and it made it worse,that evening about 3 hours later went to urgent care and they tested for yeast and BV both negative and urine sample also negative. slight irritation rash but no know bumps/anything else given Diflucan (150mg) and sent on my way.
DAY FIVE slight "diaper rash feeling" tingling and paper cut like feelings
DAY SIX minimal "tingling"
DAY SEVEN :  NOTHING
DAY EIGHT:  NOTHING went to visit OBGYN explained my symptoms and he said that he woudn't be surprised IF if wasn't herpes but gave 30 day rx for Valtrex and said that we could do blood work in June ---I immediately took the Valtrex and have been taking it daily.

Now that last few days I have been experiencing "symptoms" on and off throughout the day. Burning vagina, "heat" feeling on my thighs these symptoms only last about 10 minutes and then are gone. I am just worrying myself sick or is this "classic" mild outbreak? In addition I have not experienced ANY other symptoms...no flu, no bumps I honestly would have thought that after all my reading I would have experienced a severe outbreak after the day of a burning vagina.Wondering if anyone else has had this? In addition, I did change my birth control about 30 days prior could this all be hormonal changes and my anxiety getting the best of me?!?!?!?

urgent care didn't test you for vaginal infections?

well I went to urgent care and they said there is nothing really to "test" for at this point. Follow up with gyno on Friday to repeat all necessary tests. This sucks, I just want to feel normal again. I am not in any pain and anything, It just doesn't feel "right" down there and I wish it would :(

Grace,

now I noticed dark brown discharge. Could this mean a "outbreak" inside the vagina? I has some burning and cramping yesterday and started a new birth control in early January so could this be the start of break through bleeding? now I am just worried sick...I feel "sick" or any irritation at all.

if they see anything friday that looks like herpes lesions, they should culture them and type them, not throw something at you in hopes that it works. make sure they also retest for yeast and bacterial infections vaginally too.

Grace, I made an appt for a full exam on Friday afternoon and have quit the prescription. I am now experiencing Vaginal burning again is that common? It seems weird that outbreak symptoms would come and go correct?

no, herpes symptoms will not just last 10 minutes.
