Hi Pat66! Thank You for your response! I do agree with you in the sense that our mind and bodies can play tricks on us especially in situations like these. It's the waiting part that destroys me. I did go to the out patient clinic at the hospital today to have my blood work done in hopes of a speedier response. I'm trying to function as best I can in between but after seeing my doctor this morning my anxiety is through the roof again. The Oral HSV 2 I can accept but HIV! I am terrified! I am a good person and I really can't believe all of this is happening from 10 mins of oral sex! I am going to check out that website - Thank You!

Thank you for responding. I do just need to calm down until I get my results because it isn't healthy for my H situation for me to be stressing like this. I don't usually get sick easily, I'm usually relatively healthy with the odd cold here and there. I have just stressed and read so much that I don't know what to think anymore. I was recently somewhere warm for 10 days and did have some night sweats while I was there. I am most positive that is because of the hot climate I was in and as I said before my gland in my neck was really swollen and I did have a bit of a rash on the left side of my neck behind my ear. It could just all be a coincidence I don't know but I am literally driving myself crazy. I thought being diagnosed with Oral HSV 2 was bad enough and now this. *Sigh*

Yes unfortunately my doctor sent me for blood work and I won't have the results until Friday or Monday. So that means more days of stress and anticipation. I hate the internet because you can literally self diagnose yourself with everything under the sun. The thing that is really scaring me the most is that the Internet is saying that oral HSV 2 is usually found in people with un compromised immune systems, such a ppl with HIV etc. I just want my further test results to come back negative so I can move on with my life. I physically & mentally can't take anymore and my poor family is suffering because of it too.

Thank You! I just have never been through any of this before so I feel so lost. I have swollen glands in my neck for the past three weeks but I am assuming that is normal with a first herpes outbreak? My doctor says that my throat looks normal now and has cleared up but I have been doing a lot of reading about HSV 2 and HIV and now he is testing me for it I am very very scared. I mean all of this for a blowjob? My doctor said it can be a low risk to get HIV from giving a blowjob but I did obtain Oral HSV 2 from the sperm & I didn't know he was infected so now I'm panicking that he might have something far worse. :( I can't talk to this person either he is a complete jerk and said some awful things to me when I confronted him. I know flu like symptoms are a sign of HIV but I'm sure I'd experience them with just a herpes outbreak too like I did? I can't believe I am waiting for my test results to come back now it was bad enough waiting on the H result to find out it was positive. I'm just very very very afraid.

I don't have Chlamydia or HPV I have been tested. I am just so sick to my stomach right now that I can't even cope. I can't believe this is all happening to me!

No I was thinking if I gave a partner an unprotected blow job and then we had unprotected sex right after what are the chances of passing it? I just left my doctors office and he sending me for routine blood work to check for HIV & Hep C. I am beside myself and feel sick and anxious all over again.

Hi Adrial! Thank you SO much for responding as I have literally been beside myself. My doctor did a "Herpes Swab" that was sent to the BC Centre For Disease Control. It took about a week and then my doctor called me to say my test result was positive for HSV 2. As I don't have it down stairs I am concerned of being intimate with someone again and passing it. My doctor also said that he doesn't want me to take medication daily only if an outbreak does happen to occur. It pretty much felt as if I had strep throat and he treated me with 5 days of valtrex.

Good Morning Everyone! I am 27 years old & I live in Victoria BC Canada & I would love to meet someone in my area for a coffee or walk but I am also open to chatting with anyone anywhere as I travel often. 3 weeks ago I was diagnosed with Oral HSV 2. My situation is a little different as I only performed oral sex on the infected person. Sure enough 5 days later I woke up with an extremely sore throat, when I looked in the back of my throat with a flash light I found blisters. I went to my doctor and found out that I have oral HSV 2. I have had constant anxiety and stress since being diagnosed and feel very alone. I have read a bit about oral HSV 2 online and am under the impression that HSV 2 outbreaks in the throat are not very common? I just really need someone to talk to that can relate to my situation, I'm almost positive that my best friend is tired of listening to me as she isn't in the same boat. I'd appreciate any support or feed back! Thank You!
