I'm a female, and about a week ago, I made sexual contact with another female. The next day, she informs me that she has herpes :-)....She assured me (many times) that I had nothing to worry about, claims she takes her medication, hasn't had an outbreak in a year, monitors/knows her body...
I want to go get tested for herpes ASAP but the only thing stopping me is that from what I read and from what I understand, it takes a minute for the virus to show up in your body thru a blood test and I don't want to be tested negative to only find out it was an inaccurate test...So, I'm thinking it would be best to wait at least a month and then get tested...but not knowing now is getting at me.
We didn't engage in oral sex, I only fingered her and we did a lot of grinding (sorry I don't know the nice way to put that into words...). We were both high, so the sex was quite dry..in terms of bodily fluids.
Not going to get the answer I want until I am able to get tested but any thoughts, opinions or advice on this in the mean time?
Thanks in advance. It's been really helpful reading the discussions and info here!
