what do you think?

I am beside myself cause i do not know if i have a strange  nuerosis or I have contracted  HSV II, I slept with my ex..formerly my wife.. she had surgery for a hysterectomy, and had assured me that she   had not  had sex with another individual in the last 2 years, she was along term partner and last time i tested  I was negative, she was having  the surgery because of  pre cancerous cells that was found.. in any case  she was on alot of medications and antibiotics, we slept together near the end of  september and I developed  bumps all over the  head of my penis which then turned into a purplish  swelling that had  whitish  fluid underneath it.. it did not hurt, and  the bump did not craters.. when it looked like it was a scab I removed it and  it closed up. I saw my doctor who is experienced in STD/HIV stated that it did not  look like herpes and  said that it was  balantis more looking like a fungal or yeast, he then  perscribed fungal and yeast medicine. my mother who is a nurse said the same thing and suggested that i combine the medications in order for it to  work that that it would  take up  to six weeks . I then  would have1-3  itchy bumps that  did not have any fluid on my shaft and when i used the  medication it went away.. I did not have a discharge but i felt  burning like sensations on my legs, did not have a fever  but  felt a hotflash on the back on my neck .i would  get little bumps on my butt they would be itchy but not puss filled or would not be close to each other.butt and lower back.  I would scratch until they would scab and it would heal.. I then developed a bump on my scrotum that was itchy and iwoud scratch and then  a red fluid would  come out,, it owuld be one bumb then have  2 or three small ones around it  and then it would  scab and heal in 24 hrs.. then i got a bump on the other side of my scrotum and that one started to have smalled bumps in different sizes and i would put the medication on it but it would calm down  I then  had itching  at night  that was almost unbearable and  then my other friend who was a nurse reasoned that it might be scabies and  gave me  permethrin that worked and being at the fact that  i did not have anymore bumps on my penis and that it seemed to work then I felt better and i was  getting to a better place mentally,  then I went over  to my ex's house and slept on the extra bed and  I began to itch all over again and this time   my hands , arms, chest, stomach and  forearms kind of did the same thing that  my scrotum was doing.. I treated myself again but the bumps have not disappeared and i am still itchy.. I then got a tingle on the head of my penis that comes and goes... and i keep checking to see if anything develops and it has not, then my scrotum still had the  bumps there..and  yester day one of them itched and i scratched it and it opened .. i put  the fungal medication on it  and anti biotic ointment and it  closed up and shrank... and now my nose feels  flu like...but i have no fever and  i am having a hard  time eating or sleeping, and i am worried that my girl might have  contracted from me cause she is  complaining  that her back hurts all the time and that her arms are sore and that  she felt achy.. but she does not have a yeast infection or any signs of an outbreak.. I am having a hard time and my anxiety is at a all time high, i am going to the  free clinic tomorrow.. and even though the bumps i had looked nothing  like HSV , I am still worried and feeling  sick.. I mena what  bumps  stay on your genitals  for  close to 2 months? how can it  put out  redish fluid.. my is my penis  tingling.. am i overly  genitally focused , I am worried,

the problem is that   the skin around my genitals are dry and the  place where its looks cracked and  scaly ... i  have  been depressed and  i have been getting tingly to the point where  it was in the head of my penis, it looks like the  place where  it seems to be an outbreak is  right next to the scabies  nodule that has been there going on for  close to  2 months...I have not had anything on my shaft or head of my penis since i kept up the  fungal & yeast  medication with permenthrin.. as a matter of fact   when i got a smaller bump on my head.. i treated it  with  permethrin and  it when away in it was a single bump.. this  looks like multiple bumps  and they have not scabbed...i have used  yeast medication and  they have not itched  but they have not  healed over..i have also added  bacitracin to help and that  still has not  helped in  healing over.. when i look at  pictures on line  .. it  looks  like a bad yeast in fection  and  the bumps have not spread anywhere except that  one area..  i don't know if a yeast infect would put out fluid... that is  what i am  so worried about

You should listen to the diagnosis your doctor has given you, for the symptoms you are having.  ( I assume it is over the phone. )  When you first acquire HSV it will appear in the point of transmission.  Most commonly on the shaft or base mount of the penis.  If you have no visible sores there then only testing can confirm your status.  In the mean time, hopefully the girl will get tested and inform you of her status.  If not, then it is your duty to get tested to know your own status.  A herpes igG blood test at 16 weeks is conclusive.  If you want to test along the way, such as 7 weeks, 9, weeks, 11, weeks, and so forth you can.  Around 11 weeks will indicate wether you are indeed carrying the herpes virus or not.  Keep us posted on your outcome, and best of luck. ~Raddly

I think that it is  scabies  but  i do not know if  scabies can  cause a secondary infection  as  it is  right  next to  a scabies like  nodule and i have had this  nodule for  close to 2 months and it is not  healing  like a HSV it is  moving  like a secondary healing like  that  and it has not   spread or moved or produced any more  fluid and  the  itching had subsided .. but i am still scared...
