Herpes?/Time frames???????
The last time i had any sex was over 3 months ago. about two weeks ago i shaved my groin. a few days later i have a red bump on the upper part of my groin. Its only one red spot. it doesnt hurt or anything. it looks like a ingrown hair. How long would herpes take to show up is 3 months to long? and if it was a primary outbreak would it only be one red bump? How soon for an inital outbreak?
gottabelieve, are you also noclue? I tried changing my name to weberbarbecue, but it didn't work. (Kidding, kidding!)
Christine5150, it's possible that your thigh lesions are not where you were originally infected. In other words, you probably have had genital lesions and just never recognized them as such. Same goes for the husband. Who knows? Who cares? At this point, you have HSV2 cultures indicating you're positive. Since you both have it, it's not a big deal. You can't pass it to your son using minimal precautions, like grace mentioned in your other thread. Do we freak out about these things because they are sexually transmitted? Man, we live in a really f*cked up culture around sexuality. It's really pathetic.

i dont know whay your saying about your comment to me about the blood tests.......i didnt say they were always right or wrong......i dont know what to think.....but like waringblender said......you dont need to have the symptoms to have it. I dont know what to think about the blood tests....i guess believe them for now and figure out why i still get the pains and stuff
ok so lets say he brought it in. then that means he must have it on his genitals then why is my point of orgin on the back of my thigh and not my vagina? I don't understand the point of orgin? I am concerned about our son who is about 2 1/2 I am actually on the way out the door to the doc to get him tested because I don't know how long I have had it for. If we can pass it when we aren't broken out then there is a chance he could be infected with it because I had a vaginal delivery and I breast feed?
yeah i hear ya.....i just get all the pains and stuff.....just seems strange that i am getting all this stuff.....ok lets say its not herpes......then what are all these pains.....thats all i want to know
How could you give it to your husband without an outbreak? That's called asymptomatic shedding, and virtually everybody with herpes sheds the virus from time to time. It's also possible he brought the virus into your marriage and infected YOU. You don't need outbreaks to infect people. But you guys will probably never figure it out. Hell, they still don't know who killed Kennedy, for pete's sake. Trying to figure out who gave herpes to whom will spin you in circles. Happy Valentine's Day.
