what tests did they do on you?
your basic test results are back within a day or two. give them a call monday to see what is back to see if any answers are there for you.
It is probably something very minor. I have gone through you are going through. And I used a condom. You have to understand only because we do not see anything in our hands, does not mean nothing is there. Good luck with results.
Many thanks for your advice.
Grace, my apologies for not following the forum rules. I had already done what you suggested and been to see a doctor who is running tests, but I won't know the results for ten days and it's difficult to get an appointment in the meantime. That's why I'm looking for more info/reassurance via this avenue. I'm just scared. I'm very grateful to you and others for their help.
In our read before posting post on this forum, we ask that you keep adding to your original post instead of making new posts each time. thank you for your future cooperation with this.
When I originally answered your post I specifically told you if it gets worse or doesn't go away to follow up properly on it. why have you not done so?

Anything is possible. I'd absolutely GO SEE A DOCTOR. The internet is not going to diagnose you.
Although it is remotely possible you contracted H from her mouth, it is doubtful you would from her hand, unless she had herpes whitlow and it was active.
Again, I can not stress how important it is to see a doctor. If you DO have herpes, a course of Antivirals is a good idea for your body to get a handle on the virus.
My thought is the oil may have caused an irritation, but go to the doctor. I don't think that you could have gotten an STD or even herpes from that contact.
