Good day,
I would really like some assistance with an anomaly I am experiencing.
I test for HSV Type 2 in July and my results cam back negative , the first time the IGm came back borderline and the test was redone which came back negative.
Last week Monday i wasn't feeling well , i have been getting flu like symptoms which include
1) Fever only on evenings (very mild not much of a temperature), loss of appetite, feeling tired but not extremely, no motivation to to exercise etc. In the mornings i will feel fine but evenings I get the fever / flu symptoms.
2) I also had a slight non persistent itch in my groin area , it would itch but subside in a few secs.
3) My hands would be dry and a bit itchy , under my feet would be dry , itchy and reddish.
4) My mouth would feel dry and my lips would be dry also , I get a dehydrated feeling.
On Friday on that week I noticed a small cut on my lower lip resembling a tear. After searching google I started to get anxiety and also panic, this lead me to rush to get a HSV 1 &2 blood test done. That same evening the result were emailed to me and all my results said positive with readings as follows.
Herpes 1 IGG 1.15
Herpes 1 IGM 1.25
Herpes 2 IGG 1.14
Herpes 2 IGM 1.26
After getting these results I went into a serious depression, couldn't sleep , eat and even had dark thoughts. I was confused as to how my results showed negative just weeks ago and now it's positive.
The last interaction sexually was in June 15th. It involved no penetration she sat on my lap with my pants on , we kissed not so for long , I fingered her and she jerked me off ( Is it possible after fingering her and then touching my penis I contracted it?)
I did the test in July 16 , was it too soon that is why I got a negative result? I am very worried and concerned. ever since i have been getting this flu like symptoms and loss of appetite etc I have been searching my entire body for signs of outbreaks , lesions , bumps, fluid filled sores but this is day 9 and I haven't seen any and trust me I have been checking with a flash light and magnifying glass . My lymph nodes haven't been inflamed or hurting either.
Is it possible I am one of those that don't have Symptoms ?
Is it possible I have it and just not having any outbreaks?
Can my results be false positive due to the flu ?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated , shed some light on this as I can't manage.
Thanks in advance.
