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.
U don't even know she is hsv2 positive right? You assume that what it was so don't let ur head get a head of the game here. So just relax ... Ur doc is right condom only protect 30-50% but with one time encounter... The odds are in your favor. Come back and let us know ur results but it is really too early to tell at this point. Will be praying for u!
Day 6 the dr visit.
Went to the dr. Took a blood test it was hsv/1/2 igg rflx 1&2 type sp. Told the dr what happend and what I saw. She said herpies is verry contagious and if I came into contact with a sore I have a strong chance im also infected. But I wore a condom so I have hope. Then she made a sad face.

Day 5 and nothing but stress. still no peace of mind. Going to the dr tomarrow to get a test. Ill use it as my base line. Seen on this web sight that it was a good idea.
She did have a rash. And yes sorry I said that she told me that. Ill olney put facts from now on. Some good question now can you have a outbreak on your buttocks but not on your vagina. That is one thaing I do rember verry well. The v jj looked just as it should. Also day 4 and nothing... well its hot and im freeking out so I may have some burning feeling on my buttocks well acc I though I had every symptom + 10 more. I have made up my mind that im just going to let the doc make up his/her mind and tell me what to do.I've never been so eager to see a doctor before in my life. Im still going to look at these postes thoe no one knows but you and I need some support. Trying to keep it togeather but that is harder said than done. just this morning I was thanking bad very bad thoughts.
I've walked in your shoes. She said she was negative but you think you know better. Stop beating yourself up. Try to get out of your own head. It isn't easy but you wore a condom (good thing) and you don't know whether or not she is even HSV2+ (another good thing)... but then you made up this whole story about an active outbreak which obviously took you to a whole different place.
I think u will be ok from this and I think we all learn from the lessons taught. Hang in there ... Praying for u!
