Protecting Uninfected Partners Against Herpes Simplex 2

Last month I tested positive for herpes simplex 2. Recently I've been talking to a girl that I'm really into and the feeling is mutual. I want to take every precaution to make sure she does not become infected. We use comdoms every time we have sex and always did even before I found out I had herpes. I take acyclovir daily and take two showers a day to kill and rinse off as much of the virus as possible.

Today she told me that she had been having a weird headache and that her throat had been feeling weird as well. This sent up a red flag and has been giving me anxiety because I do not want this girl to have what I have. She has no other symptoms and did not have fever or body aches. I know she's extremely tired from school, but is there any chance she might be infected or am I overthinking allot of things??

Didn't mean to post twice saw that I had posted on a men's health community instead of the herpes community
