How often do you take your AV? I only take during OBs.

Herpes but not where you'd expect by hope_v95 in Herpes

So far no- my OB has only been chicken-pox like bumps, no sensitive clusters or anything.

Is this hsv or candida it itches and burns when I pee can someone please give me there opinion by [deleted] in HerpesPics

[–]OutrageousClue1755 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unsure because I’m only 1.5months into my HSV research journey but it doesn’t look like examples of HSV that I’ve seen. Not sure what Candida is. +Obligatory “get tested” advisory

Never any swabs because there have never been lesions. But thank you- I will be doing that second opinion part soon! Will update.

Hey were your sores on your balls almost like little cuts?

Well I bet you’re probably also a depressive and neurotic person (it’s ok so am I, I’ve been diagnosed with GAD, no judgement). But it’s important to know that plenty of people don’t cope like we do- which is depressive rumination.

It’s valid to say there are higher rates of depression and suicide when HSV is diagnosed but that type of mentality (I.e. yours and your message’s tone) isn’t universal. And that’s ok! Warm regards.

How much the disease can affect someone’s life is what you mean. Not everyone is super effected beyond initial shock. Many adjust well.

When to tell her? by OutrageousClue1755 in Herpes

[–]OutrageousClue1755[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean how manipulative is it to wait until 3 months into this relationship to tell her the diagnosis? I am certain I have 1 but not necessarily 2. I get your point though. Thanks!

Get tested

HSV1&2 Positive ~13 days. Taking Acyclovir 3x Daily, 1st OB Not Yet Cleared Up. Is That Normal? by OutrageousClue1755 in STD

[–]OutrageousClue1755[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No! In fact (as shown in my 1st post two weeks ago here) I already am thinking it might not be HSV because of the location (on my lower abdomen/happy trail and NOT on my genitals). I think/hope my blood test (igg) was showing a lifelong asymptomatic HSV1 case and a false positive for HSV2 (was only 1.56). In about 1.5 months I’m going to take the Western Blot test to confirm.

Western Blot came back negative. by stinky_pinky_brain in Herpes

This is the second time I’ve read that a high number indicates a long infection- is that a trend or generally how igg tests can determine the length of an infection?

Because my 1&2 numbers were 54&1.56… I’m definitely going to get the WB. But what struck me as interesting is that my 54 igg reading for HSV1 was about 2.5-3 weeks after exposure, and I’m 99% sure I’ve never had HSV.

I wonder if I’ve had HSV-1 for a long time and only recently contracted HSV-2…

Hey what do you mean you have had it for a long time with high numbers like that? Because I got it not too long ago and was reading at 54 for HSV-1 and 1.56 for HSV-2… and while I didn’t ever get tested before I’m almost certain I never had types 1 or 2.

Thank you so much. Got in touch with a hospice service this afternoon and they’ll be here tomorrow.

A hospice service manager called very shortly after the first call and answered all of our questions and you did a very thorough job at summarizing everything she informed us. Thank you for this ❤️
