Even during an active outbreak, usually HSV is not transmitted. I agree many ER docs are not herpes experts, and her "big trouble" comment wasn't justified. She also seems to not know about the research that shows that taking acyclovir after exposure does not prevent infection. The only possible effect is to delay onset of symptoms and to make later diagnosis more difficult. I suggest you find more expert care (like your local health department STD clinic, a Planned Parenthod clinic, etc) then follow their advice about treatment, follow-up, and maybe later testing for HSV.

Sep 12 will be 3 weeks. I have done nothing but research and read the bible. I have found out a lot of new thaings On herpes and still so stressed out. Got a 200 luma led flash light and a magnifying mirror. That was a mistake at first. I have found out just how much your skin changes from day to day. Also my dog has flees. deodorant makes my armpits red. When its hot my balls turn red. I have fordyce like 70% of everyone. If you stop masturbating you get blue balls. If you have blue balls masturbating will make it go away in 30 minutes. And I am allergic to something that causes a rash for like 2 hours then it goes away. Something I get on my hands in the morning.  Toothpaste? No symptoms of herpes. Thank god. Pleas pray for me.

Thank you all for your positive comments. I got my test back and the numbers are hsv1 50.50 positive hsv2 0.91 . Neg for hsv2. I set up another appointment for the 16 th. So far so good no symptoms the test is as I expected. Trying to stay positive started reading the Bible and I prayed to god for all of you who have this and for everyone on this rollercoaster ride of not knowing.

You really need to calm down. A rash is not to be mistaken for herpes lesions, it would not be mistaken!
