I have a long distance marriage. I and my partner ( I don't want to call him husband any more because I am totally lost, badly hurt and have no idea what I will/ should do when I meet him again).
I didn't have any partner except him.
We were together from late March to 4/19 this year. We have unprotected sex because I have IUD many times during his visit. He did not have any strange symptom in genital area, or at least no obvious symptoms. I started to feel itch, tingling and a little warm under May 3rd , then I went to get tested for everything. The test shows 1.03 for HSV2 IGG and I am prescribed medication (metronidazole, fluconazole) for yeast. In two days, I saw small red spot on the left side in the hairing area, so I went to see the doctor again. He prescribed me Valtrex based on my blood test and so I started to take it for two weeks before I read all about HSV2 here. My red spots never go away since May and my itching is always there. There are maybe a few days that I did not see it. It started with one in the hair area and then another one about 5 cm away grow out, and then one in the back , another one on the leg area. The most time, there are three red dots in total. If you pinch it, blood come out. A few days after the dot came out, the skins around it about a nickel size become red and then start to all peel off, forming white dead skins. Right now, there is still one in the area where the first one show up, where is the main area that the symptom never go away. I applied antifungal cream, it seems it helps, but the dead skin peeling comes and goes in the whole last two months.
Summary: have unprotected sex with the only partner many times during late march to 4/19/2014, no sex partner before that. He has confessed that he did go to find prostitutes.
First blood test 5/7/2014 from quest diagnosis
Hsv1 igg >5
Hsv2 igg 1.03
GARDNERELLA detected
I took about two weeks of valtrex before the second blood test.
Second blood test 6/9/2014 from the same facility testing only HSV2 igg.
Hsv2 igg 1.23
After that I finished the second two weeks of Valtrex and have not refilled it.
I want to take the blood test again but my doctor said since I am already positive now, it is not necessary to do it again. I am going to see him again next Monday and will try to convince him to give me the test slip.
My Questions:
1. Is it conclusive that an increase of 0.20 in the test in a month with about 15 pills of antiviral medication input. Do I still have a hope that I may have false positive.
2. from my reading in Medhelp, I think the symptom is probably not HSVII, What it could be? what medication should I take. The antibacterial and anti-fungal medication did not work for me. some dots did have hair going inside. it is itching and painful. Is it related to GARDNERELLA detected in May/7?
Thank you so much for your help. The itching/painful symptom is not the worse part. how to deal with the marriage and whether I can take care of my two kids by myself for my rest of my life are my biggest concerns right now.
