yeah, that would really be a fluke since I'm a stay-at-home mom. hee hee hee. What time zone are you in? :)
Sorry. I had the screen up and the neighbor came over and I had to wrap it up and click outta here in a hurry. Well, I will let you know what my second test says. Are you going to get a second? Get your husband tested for your own sanity. It doesn't matter but still it is nice to satisfy your curiousity. Ya, I read the tear forums before. Lots of folks out there like us, aren't there? Back atcha soon. We will figure out a way to be in touch somehow without making it all public knowledge. Wouldn't that be weird if we were coworkers or some fluke like that? Ok, look forward to hearing back from you soon. Take care, EB
Ya, no kidding. I read over the womens forum with the cuts, tears, topics and I do remember that I have read them before. I feel so dumb answering peoples postings with herpes, yes, it is herpes, etc. but I guess I was told the same bull **** for yrs only to find out I was hsv 2 pos myself. I will tell you as soon as I know about the darn herpes test, trust me. I mean the repeat herpes select test. No condoms. My husband has no fears after all these yrs and he is really thinking how could I possibly have it and if I did, he would. Which really only makes sense. I think we could call at a pay phone or something and then exchange phone numbers or something but how would we know we were there?
anxious to hear your results. So here's a personal question....are you and your husband using condoms now, or is he not worried since he hasn't gotten it in the last 14 years? Still haven't got a test for my hubby...he's out of town right now, but I may suggest getting a test at Planned Parenthood when he gets back. Things haven't been in tip top shape down yonder (as Grace would say! :) anyway, so sex isn't something I've been craving...well, not totally true, but you know what I mean! Think I need to order that lube that Grace recommended. Don't know if you had a chance to read over those old forums yet, but I related to the girl that said the KY really didn't feel very good. I tend to get a burning sensation with the stuff and she seemd to have the same trouble. Interesting. Too bad we can't have a "My Vagina Feels Like ****" Conference and get us all torn-up vagina people together! :)
I would like to get in touch somehow....I've been trying to figure that out. What about yahoo messenger? Perhaps we can sign on under the same "handle"?
Once again. I agree. We are so much alike. Well, I had another herpes select test done at the planned parenthood closer to my house. I do believe I have it as what else would explain all of these tears and irritations for so many yrs. still think it is awful weird my husband doesn't have type 2. As I said, he has 1, thanks to his uneducated mom. I think she is better now and she knows she better not kiss my kids with a cold sore. Anyway, I will let you know what my results are the second time around. If pos, I won't freak as I already did that recently when I found out. It is all so dumb as I have always wondered for yrs, with all of the irritations I have had and I had heard here and there that herpes can appear as cuts, nicks, tears, scratches, rashes and abrasions. Mostly heard that stuff online. Anyway, I think you can get a western blot through Quest diagnostics (a lab) and or go to planned parenthood, your doc or a clinic and get a repeat herpes select type specific test. I will read up on some of the stuff you gave me with regards to tears, yeast, etc. Yes, to answer your quest, I do think the acyclovir is working or maybe it just is not time for cuts, tears, redness, swelling and irritation yet. I will let you know what my second test reveals. I am thinking it will still be pos as they say it is 97-100% accurate or more. Will be in touch. Hope we can talk more frequently but sounds like we are both so busy with fam, work, life, etc. Look forward to hearing back from you soon. Good luck and take care, EB
