i've had a lot of confusion concerning my diagnosis --- all my blood tests and cultures have come back negative (and i've had a TON), but i've had two sores in my genital area in the past two years, and the last time a doctor saw she said she was almost positive it was herpes simplex, despite the negative test results.
I am very confused.
the last time i had a sore, i had a high fever and sore throat and white patches in my throat.
two days ago the same type of thing happened to me --- high fever, sore throat, white/yellow patches, and tests for strep and mono came back negative (as they did last time) -- there is no sore yet, but I am taking valtrex because i am paranoid and trying to prevent something from happening.
Do you think these "episodes" with the fever, sore throat, patches, could be a result of tonsillitis which is causes by the herpes i may or may not have?
