Scared And Concerned

Ok so like 3 weeks ago maybe more I found out I have Hpv that following weekend I had symtoms of what I thought was a uti.. Urgency to pee could pee very little and blood and lower back pain.. Well it was the weekend so I had to go to the hospital had to a urine test and two Cathers that how bad it was because the urine test has too much blood and the first one wasn't enough it was a long depressing day. He also decided to do some cultures while he was down there he saw a bump and did I herpes culture.. It became a even worse day because the day b4 I found out I have Hpv.. Anyways 2 days uti report came back I did have one.. He also gave me valtrex to be safe and I took it.. The following week I started to get the same symtoms but was itchy and burning not so much uti symtoms went to the doctor did every std culture and yeast, bacterial every thing.. Two day later they called and eveytime cam back negative he said maybe a chemical embalance .. So I said ok.. He also stated that my herpes culture the preliminary one came back negative but that they did two and the second one takes 3-5 I have never heard of one like this and should hopefully get the results this week.. So two days after that started to have urgency to pee, peeing very little and burning after I pee.. I started chugging water but then started doing research on the herpes virus not that I did enough anyways.. Next day made a appointment did the uti cultures and they sent it to the lab.. I had her check me because all my symtoms and explained everything that is going on and asked lots of questions good news is she saw nothing.. That was Friday now today is sun 10:37pm.. I have still had the urgency to pee but also the burning im hot too the touch down there and prickly and itching.. Occasionally it burns when I pee or after.. But I've had this for 3 days now with now breakouts.. I've also had back pain too.. So my questions are.. Wouldn't I have had a breakout by now? And if my preliminary culture came back negative what are the chances the percent one will too.. I know something is wrong with me and everything is giving me a lot of anxiety if anyone can help I would appreciate it ..

I thought so too.. Apparently they sent it to a lab in California .. Idk why.. Also today my uti results came back I didn't have one.. My vaginal irritation is better. But still there a little.. The pain in my back is worse and my pelvic area hurts and I still have urgency to use the bathroom.. But no uti.. Any ideas? Could a cyst do this?

Yes but the timing seems way too long.

Normally it is 2-4 days for a culture to detect the presence of HSV, then a further 4-7 days for correct typing.

Have you ever heard of two test cultures one for 7-14 day and one for 3-5 weeks.. He called the first one a preliminary test..

There is no reason to suspect that herpes is causing these symptoms.
