The Dr Gynocologist a head of the dept in a hospital, I went to him with a list of questions for the second boyfriend before the sex and all he said was use the condom and then after three months take off the condom, that herpes 1 was no big deal. We never did discuss about the telling. Maybe the professional Medical field do not care or know enough. No one really wanted to talk openly about the sex subject. They figure seniors are going to die soon anyway. I will print out your paperwork and give to these people who really have no idea about the telling, 50% safety with condom and the shedding HSV.
I still work 5 days a week so I am not retired yet.My time is limited. But I think it might be something I would like to do. I was supprised how little people want to talk about herpes.
