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.
For me, I believe I had HSV II and not know I had it for many years. The first time I slept with my boyfriend, I had inflammation of the cervix, UTI which was the STD, and many yeast infections. I was sick for 6 months with all the symptoms of HSV II. In fact, I slept with my boyfriend with the herpe sore and we both never knew what it was. He still doesn't have it and I do. We believe the trauma of intercourse had the HSV II to surface and I began having outbreaks every since. I have to be on medication or else I'll have a sore.
My boyfriend is on medication so he doesn't get it.
I think from the time you thought you had it and you had medication, you needed to continue with the medication until you knew the results. That way your partner/partners have less chance of having herpes.
My story sucks and I don't know where I got it, but I'm thankful to having a partner that understands. He was with me every step of the way and saw how horrible the symptoms were. I just can't believe herpes could stick around for so long and then BAM it just creeps up.
Let all of us know if you were positive or negative.
Also, don't let things get you down. I felt horrible too, but in the long run, I got over it and live life like normal. It's a bump in the road that you can get over too. There are also ways of telling your partner/partners if you have it. I only have told a few close friends/family about it.. my mom, best friend, and boyfriend only. Good luck!
