I was exposed to herpes last Thursday and since then I’ve been a panicking nervous mess. I got out of a 3 year relationshipin February, this guy is the first guy Ive slept with. He wasn’t expressing any symptoms and was not having an outbreak however the condom fell off inside of me twice (I know). The day after us having sex I felt uncomfortable with tingling everywhere in my pelvic region, everything felt like pinching.
On Sunday I left work early, the burning sensation after peeing was so painful I felt like I pulled a muscle or triggered insane cramps from hell. I saw the doctor on Tuesday and confirmed that my bumps were razor burn and one was folliculitis. I have a yeast infection and have not received a call from the doctor regarding my STD test. I came back negative for a UTI. She said she would not do a blood test due to them having a high false positive/negative rating. Yesterday, I noticed my neck becoming tender and becoming afraid that the flu like symptoms are just around the corner. No weird bumps, I feel reoccuring pinching on the tip of my outer lips before my labia. I’m day 6 of 12 of the incubation period. Reoccuring leg tingling and pinching. Basically have to wait for something to happen which is literally driving me crazy.
Have to wait 6 weeks until I’m in the clear.
I don’t know, I want someone to talk to. I’m not afraid to have hsv-2 I just want this turmoil of not knowing if i have it to be over. I feel like the neck tenderness is my anxiety and stress at work along with being hypersensitive to what my body is feeling. I feel insecure that the doctor didn’t provide me with an absolute reason to believe I don’t have it, I know that they can’t. I don’t know what to do from here I have been in high stress mode for about a week. I’m upset that I won’t feel like myself for awhile. Thank you for reading my nervous, anxiety ridden post.
