yes makes sense. Everybody should be tested for herpes cause they may have it as well throwing stones is stupid as anybody could get it at any time.

too bad. If you made it to saint you could have publically disclosed, which would have helped the awareness bigtime.

You think that it would help them get better parts?

Thanks The tabloids seem to be the main source of the info. Mainstream media does get near this stuff. Which is probably a good thing.

Anybody here know of anybody that had to get a c-section because of herpes?

Does'nt seem to have hurt their careers. If the sex industry has 100% infection rate to the point they don't even have to disclose then what the hell is all the fuss about? By the age of thirty if you have not been exposed to it then you are either a catholic Nun/Priest that actually follows the rules or a hermit living in a cave.

Herry You mean they actually allow people on the internet to lie? No way!

yep professional atheletes are right up there too with show biz. My friend used to treat Daryl Strawberry for sexual addiction and the stories were incredible.

Just about anybody can get it but if your famous its pretty hard to keep it a secret from the press. Especially Oral. The Ladies Anne Heche - Revealed she has been battling the disease since childhood in her biography. Sad stuff. Lauren Hutton Alana Morisette Lindsey Lohan Sheryl Crow Paris Hilton Valtrex Perscription Victoria Beckham Pamela Anderson Lucie Arnaz Janet Jackson - The Smoking Gun has the story of her attempt to use her former chef, Ricardo Macchi, name to buy multiple types of prescriptions which includes Zovirax. The case eventually went to court. Tawny Kitaen Britney Spears (seen buying Zovirax while in Kentwood) Katie Holmes Alyssa Milano Jessica Alba - She got it from former boyfriend Derek Jeter according to the rumored story. Jessica Biel - She also got it from Jeter. Mariah Carey - Another Derek Jeter victim. Vanessa Minnillo - Once again…do not spread for Derek Jeter. Scarlett Johansson - Derek Jeter …AGAIN Mary Kate Olsen Kim Kardashian - Has dated Ray J. and Reggie Bush. Kim K. was mentioned by Britney Spears as being an insatiable sexual liaison as the two reportedly had sex. Liza Minnelli - David Gest sited this as one of the reasons for divorce. The Guys David Hasselhoff Bill Clinton Moby Tony Bennett Robin Williams Justin Whalin Brad Pitt David Beckham Jason Kidd Fred Durst Joshua Jackson Billy Idol - Told Rolling Stone Magazine about his flair up. Colin Farrell Juwan Howard Dennis Rodman Cliff Robinson Vernin Maxwell Derek Jeter Michael Vick - Was sued for failing to reveal this to a sexual partner who contracted the disease. Justin Timberlake - Either Britney, Biel or Scarlett gave it to him. Take your pick. I am guessing it was Spears. Orlando Bloom - Got it from Minnillo courtesy of Jeter. Nick Lachey - Also got it from Minnillo.

Herry? I don't think we are allowed to post that kind of info according to the rules.

A lot of old dudes walking around in baggy pants showing off.

I agree with that. It was like clockwork. The more I thought about the H the more stress I got which brought it out.

My mothers who is 78 best friend since she was 4 years old lives there. The place is huge but they said its a lot of fun there. I heard Viagra had something to do with it.

Then what he is feeling is guilt IMO. That will eat you alive. you need to go do something fun and start forgetting about it.

http://www.cdc.gov/std/stats/ Check it out. Lots of data but remember many people don't go to the doc so they don't get counted.

BTW the test means that he has been tested positive for the antibodies. He may never get OB.

If you have a spa or hot tub it works wonders with the anxiety. A good massage works too. the itchin is in his head from paranoia. Tell him he has the chickenpox virus too but his immune system stops it from coming out so it will be the same with Hsv.

You may never know who got it from who - It may be that you have had it all along and just not had an obvious outbreak. In which case your BF may not have it. He needs to get tested ASAP so you can figure out if you want/need to use supressive drugs. 1 in 4 have it and if you live in a big city like NY, SF or Chicago that number is probably a lot higher. It is what it is.

If you have ever worked in an emergency room or been part of a heart transplant operation you will often hear some of the most obscene\foul mouthed name calling against any nurse that show any incompetence or lack of urgency. Some of the nurses start to take on the same hard edged behavior. The docs need to stay impersonal/nonemotional in that situation or the patient could die. But that is no excuse for the nurses insensitive behavior in a lab. Training is everthing.

My friend got something similar about three months ago and he tested negative. But its best to ask your partner about it regardless of your symptoms. It would help a lot with the anxiety you are having. I know there are some other things out there besides herpes that could cause similar symptoms but I am not an expert that field. Anyhow this is the best site for finding answers on herpes.

I do know that out here in SF most of the people I well enough to discuss this topic are very familiar with it and have already had their exp with it when they were in their twenties are earlier. Kind of like getting the mumps or chickenpox. its just something that is annoying like poison oak but not life-threatening.

Wonder if those stats can be broken down by age with a sliding scale from like the age of twelve until 90. say its 2/10 by 18 going to 9/10 at 70?

Maybe we should assume everybody has it unless they are tested to show otherwise, that might change the prospective.

Are you on some kind of health insurance plan? Some of them discourage testing to save money that's why they act like they don't give a damn. You are right they are idiots. Others don't know how to do anything until they actually try it for the first time on you.

and probably has
