My bf and I had sex 2 Sundays ago. I noticed what felt like a tear near the opening of my vagina the next day. I used my cell to make a video of it to make sure it wasn't a bump and saw that it was in fact a tear. I of course use panty liners and I used tucks and vaseline to keep it from stinging so much. Three days afterwards I had a small bump appear not even that close to my genital area. I assumed it was an ingrown hair bump after having had shaved. Anyway, I called my gyno so the tear can be checked out. Wanted to be sure I wouldn't need stitches. My doc confirmed it was just a tear and then I told her about the bump and how it just appeared and is a little sore and itchy. She swabbed it. That was Monday of this week. Wednesday I got the dreaded call that it was positive for hsv2. I immediately went to get a blood test after that phone call. The next day it showed I was negative for both hsv2 and hsv1. I have been giving my bf the side eye. I am trying to figure out how to tell him so he could get this blood test done. I will go in four weeks to get another blood test because that one showed I haven't built up antibodies to it yet. Which means it is fairly new. I'm going through the five stages of grief alone. I don't even want to tell a friend. My plan is to drag him to a doctor and have him tested to see his results and go from there. Ugh my life right now.
