I have a question that hopefully someone can help me with. I lost my virginity to a guy last March who had slept with 3 women before me (one was a girlfriend of 2 years, one he had sex with for about 5 minutes with a condom on, and one was a one-time unprotected sexual encounter with a girl he had known for a while). Of particular concern to me is his ex-girlfriend, who slept with 14 men before him. He lost his virginity to her 2 years ago. After learning about his ex girlfriend's sexual history, I freaked out and stopped sleeping with him, and waited about 8.5 weeks after our last unprotected sexual encounter, which was also about 15 weeks past our first sexual encounter, to get a blood test for HSV-2. If it matters, we had sex a total of 19 times, 7 of which were protected with a condom. The blood test came back negative. He was never tested for herpes and neither was his ex. I've never had any symptoms of herpes (which I know doesn't mean anything) but he has had recurring itching in his genital and armpit area that he said he's had all his life but that I find very suspicious (though his doctor said it was heat rash/jock itch).
I never got a follow up blood test, in part because I was strongly admonished against it by my GP, who said that my relatively low risk history put me at risk for a false positive that might send me into a tailspin. I have diagnosed hypochondriasis that I'm receiving treatment for, but sometimes the thought wanders into my head to get a re-test. Its been 8 months since we last had sex. Lately I've been particularly worried. What do you guys think? Should I get retested, given my ex's suspicious itching and his ex gf's sexual history? He is the only person I've ever been with.
Thanks!
