I am really glad for you! - test wise ...
Yes, that's a weird location - it should be on your penis, scrotum etc... since it's a skin-to-skin infections.
Almost everyone has HSV1, but not as many people have HSV2 (some statistics claim up to 25% in US, 10% in Europe...)...
Wow! it felt go good to read that! 10 years ago during a difficult time in my marriage I slept with someone without protection. There was no ejaculation but still a risk. I tested several months later and it was negative and I moved on until last year. I started to think maybe there was a lab error so I purchased two at home oral HIV tests and they were both negative. I followed this up with a blood test from my local health department and that was negative. I started to feel ok for about a year. I was having bad anxiety thinking there was something faulty In all those tests so I went to my urgent care because I was having an anxiety attack. While I was there I requested an HIV test so they sent it to labcorp and the result was negative. I felt better until about a month ago again maybe thinking the doctor thought I was just crazy and told labcorp to just report this as a negative. Crazy I know but I cant help it. I just wanted to respond and say reading your post helped. I love my husband and children so much and would be devastated if I put them at risk for anything. I wish I can just move on.
After praying on my hands and knees, I finally went to the doctor to find out that the WARTS were not the reason for the inconclusive result but a inconclusive Chlamydia result.! He burned off the warts and made me take a pee test. There I waited. While waiting, I became extremely stressed out to the point I started hallucinating Herpes and had to leave work on multiple occasions crying all the way home. I inspected my genitals day in and day out, waiting for more things to appear. I made emergency doctors appointments to have him check everything over and over. The chlamydia result came back inconclusive again so he gave me the antibiotics to cure it anyways.
My boyfriend had barely heard from me in weeks and was going crazy himself. So I blamed him for giving me both infections as I had only slept with one other guy who I assumed was clean a month prior. Very shady of me! He quickly went and got tested. During the wait period I realized I had never had blood work done and continued to search on the internet for every detail of every STD alive. My boyfriends results came back negative across the board. After this, I convinced myself I had HIV and couldn't eat due to anxiety. After not eating at all for 2 or 3 days I developed a severe migraine, eye pain, night sweats, fever and so on. I then believed I had HIV. The stress was so bad that I went to work and full on got oral thrushing all over my tongue and started to ball my eyes out planning my dealth, who would watch my dog and how scared I was to die and miss my whole family. Me and my best friend rushed to the walk in for blood work, and the nurse told me I did not have it. I didn't believe her because my nail was also infected from a gel nail and I had a skin rash ( exzema always had it). I continued reading the chances of getting it. The next day I developed gum rawing and believed my pimples were the rash. I dropped from 125-119 pounds from not eating in 2 days and realized my body was disingrating. I then had a anxiety attak at work and almost had to leave to check myself into the ER. No Joke. I made all these promises to God and begged him but knew I was done. The phone rang and the nurse said you have normal blood work and it is all negative. I hit the ground crying because the last month and a half of my life almost killed me.
My Message here is that, for the people who have not been promiscuous DONT BE. Never and I mean Never have sex without a condom until your married. I didn't understand why people warned us as kids and now I do. People can have a STI show no symptoms and give it to you. It will never be worth the risk. For people who think they have it take a deep breathe and remember that the power of the mind is so powerful it can produce ALL psychical Symptoms. The chances of HIV are 0.008 for girls and 0.004 for men. That's having sex with a HIV positive person 1250 times and being infected once. Relax and get the blood work done and have faith. If you do have it your life is not over, and many people who have experienced this realize that the stigma is not real.
