Negative Herpes tests

Hi, I am fairly certain I contracted HSV2 about 15 months ago. I originally had a fever and other symptoms a few days after sex. The girl who I slept with claims she doesn't have it but she mentioned something about how dogs can get herpes earlier that night, before we fooled around, probably should have been a warning for me, but not the first stupid thing I've done in my life. Anyway my question is, I have tested negetive for an IGM and IGG at 6 months, IGG at 9 months, and a swab test at 15 months. I have recurring itchy genitals and anus, sciatic like leg pain, rashes on my thighs, singular red bumps on my thighs that follow the itching and other symptoms. This seems to occur when I am sick or stressed out. I have squeezed a few of these bumps and clear fluid comes out of them. I also have recurring flu like symptoms and other symptoms. This has to be herpes but the tests keep coming back negative, any help?

This sounds more like jock itch than anything. Be seen by your provider for a proper work up

lol you are not a doctor to suspect that you have herpes symptom and at 15 month you can be certain that herpes is not involved.go find any other reason for rash or sores but it is not herpes you just have ruled herpes out of question with negative test at 15 weeks.
