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.

Ok so I may have lied just a little on her telling me that she had herpies. I asked her and she said no. I just figured she was lieing so I went stright to herpies in my head. good news is I looked up pics of herps and they look nothing like what I saw. This is some crapy roller coaster ride. So she olney had red scabs on her butt none on her vjj they were about dime and nickel sized spaced about 1" apart not blochy just Circle oval shaped  none were small and nothing in between. Bad news I had sex with her so I guess im still on this rollercoaster nightmare. She was big and it may have ben heart rash bec its hot out. Sticking to the same plan appoment on the 28 th.

Based on what I read in this forum... The likelihood of outbreak is 2-20 days.... But then again, I read many posts where people have it much later but it maybe that they mad really mild outbreak ( not sure what that means thou).  So the actions you need to do is listed in my previous post .... Do them and if by 16 weeks... U have no outbreak and blood test negative... Then u r really home free but I will like other more experienced moderators confirm as I am also very new to this :(
Hope u get a good night of sleep.. I been taking sleeping pills to be able to sleep so that might help too.  
In the mean time, go read about the herpes hand book that grace post link to.  Even if everything is neg ,..... Then you learned something about the virus for your future safety so u won't have to come back to the forum again :).
Good luck and we support each other!
