Thanks so much, i cant wait to check it out... Right now I'm sitting at urgent care. I can't per. I have to force myself to pee. Hoping to just get antibiotics and get out a here.

Thank you willow for responding. My bf and I have know each other since 8th grade but lost contact and happened to find him again on facebook through his cousin at which time he told me he had been looking for me for 17 years. He's never had an ob. And mine has pretty much cleared up and just finished my first bottle of valtrex. I'll definitely get the supplements and try it out. I'm just looking for more answers with this new infectious diseases Dr on Thursday. Hopefully they will have all my test results and I'm sorry I didn't realize that Not everything was complies and pasted from the just diagnosed page. Thanks again for all the advice I can't seem to get enough of information and hopefully tip on how to keep on away

New to pretty much everything this site is about. I am a 33 year old divorced woman who after 12 years of being with the same guy started seeing my now boyfriend 2 years ago. (2 guys in 15 years) About 2 weeks ago after dropping my kids off with their dad I came home and prepared a highly romantic evening; candles, lingerie, and thought about the possibility of allowing my bf to live a dream he had told me about when we lived apart and in separate states. The evening was amazing and didn't think much of anything else. 4days later I was sure I had hemorrhoids. I was swollen and sore and tried over the counter products to be comfortable. A couple days later I was in excruciating pain when I tried to go to the bathroom at work. I left work immediately and drove to the ER. The DR examined me which left me screaming in pain and then asked.. "Mam, have you had anal sex recently?" I was beyond embarrassed but nodded my head as I looked down at the bed. He continued, was it unprotected. I again said yes but explained I had been with this guy for 2 years. He liked at me and said "Mam, you do not have hemorrhoids, your anal area is covered in leissons" I was confused I didn't know what this meant, what's a lesion. What is this Dr talking about. "Mam," he continued," It looks like you have herpes." A little back story I suffer from sever anxiety and depression and have since I was 15 years old. I lost my virginity at 17 years old and between that night until the present I had only been with 5 guys including my bf. I didn't quite understand how this could happen, I stared panicking. All these questions ran throughout my head. How is this possible, I've been with my bf for 2 years who did this happen, when did this happen, why didn't my bf say anything if he had it, why did I never noticed anything before. I just moved 200+ miles away from my family to be with him, what if he decides he doesn't want to be with me, what if he thought I had cheated, how did I get this did I give it to him, can I give it to my children, I knew nothing and was beyond scared. After a cat scan and more than a few sticks with needles and a dose of pain meds that made my head float off into a galaxy far far away I called my be to pick me up, (he had picked up the kids from school and taken them to open house since I thought for sure I was just a horrible case of hemorrhoids). He was more than concerned and wanted to know everything. I told him sobbing that the Dr was 99% sure I had genital herpes but was waiting for the culture and blood work to comeback and I told him that on top of that I had a uti. He didn't get mad he didn't say much just hat we are a team and we will handle this together, but threw in that he had been tested a for studs a few months ago. He said that we had to do some research and figure things out but that he loved me and we would get through this together. I took the next 2 days off from work as the pain meds they gave me knocked me out and so I spent my time crying and sleeping and when I had a few calm moments I was me. Google queen. I learned quickly that there was a chance that my bf was asymptomatic and maybe he didn't kniw he carried the virus. I learned that this was probably the worst ob I would ever have. I looked at pictures and cried and slept some more. I noticed my urine output started to diminish and forget the thought of having to poop. I was put on pain killers, valtrex, a stool softener,and some sort of cream that the pharmacy didn't have so they gave me some type of hemorrhoid cream that burned Sooo badly. So it's been 2 weeks since my diagnosis and I'm still unsure what it all means. In a couple days I go visit the infectious diseases Dr hoping to learn more. I just popped for the first time in 2 weeks yesterday (sorry for the tmi) still having issues going pee and pretty sure the uti has only gotten worse. My bf has been so awesome. I miss being intimate with him. And of course get back to out normal life, but I realized there no going back, there will be a new normal we will have together figure out together. As of a couple days ago my lesions have healed and I'm starting to feel like there might be some hope. I'm still scared of what this all means for my future and our future but I'm hopeful that thus group will help me though this as far as support since I am not sure I want anyone else besides my by and I but I just hope I can find out more info and maybe help others and just be a good friend to those of you who need one because Lord knows I need someone I can talk to about stuff.,, thanks everyone and leave question comments or whatever, I'll try and keep you all updated as things go along. Let me also add that in May I had gone to pph and had an old inserted at which time they did a full std test which came back all clear and moved to be here with the bf in July
