  1. my skin was very itchy in the entire region for quite a while after my OB healed. It did finally feel better, but it was incredibly annoying. I was scratching my butt like a monkey for weeks!! Soooo not fun.
  2. I have wondered the same thing. I recently was diagnosed with hsv2 as well and had that concern. My doc told me basically not to worry too much, to be safe and conscious about not doing it during an OB, and to stay on meds to suppress the virus...this keeps the herpes at bay and makes it even harder to pass it on. It is very rare to pass hsv2 orally, so be careful but do not worry too much about it.
  3. jazzybelle, I just had my first outbreak as well, and it's been about 2 weeks since the start of it. Mind started with what I thought was a cut on my rear end from shaving. Then, it got very itchy and burned a bit. When the red swelled skin went down, the sores showed up. I had about 6 in total, all close to my "taint" area. They are healing now, but the cluster closest to the opening of my butt is taking longer. I have a lot of nerve pain down my left leg all the way to my heal, it even hurts to walk. The existing sores are still a bit painful, like an open cut. It sucks, but im hoping most people are right and that the first outbreak is the worst. If that is true, I believe I can make it through this herpes thing...as long as it doesnt show up on my face!! You and I should talk more since we both just started this. We might be able to help each other!
  4. Adrial, I am feeling like an irresponsible woman...having sex with a person when I knew better. The problem lies in my marraige and that I fell in love with my giver, and he in love with me. When I speak of setting examples for my girls, I mean by being an unfaithful wife and contracting an STD, and possibly to my faithful loyal Husband. Its hard to see my life being anything like what it was before. I am wondering what every sensation means...every bump, itch, etc is of concern now. I love sex...especially spontanious sex with passion! I feel like now I need to wrap myself in plastic wrap and sanitize myself and my partner before, during and after sex. That takes all of the passion and enjoyment out of it. I have always felt good about myself until now. I lost all self confidence and hope for a happy life. I fear that I will end up looking like a freak as well as feeling like one. I am trying to understand this virus better, but im getting very little information about my concerns. Im so scared for my future. Im scared im going to pass it to my kids when I kiss them goodnight or bath them. I put my whole family in danger of getting an STD by being so selfish. Im not sure I can get through this.
  5. thanks brighteyes. i hate all of this...i feel like a jackass for even dealing with all of this. I am 35 years old and a mother of 2 young girls...what example have I set???!! Im so ashamed of myself, and so confused about this whole thing. My giver claims he never had herpes. I believe him because he was honest about once having chlamidia ( i think i spelled that wrong). Im spinning!
  6. Brighteyes...what is prodrome? Also, sacral ganglia?? Hugh?
  7. Sayywhatt...why do you hate shaving?? Im just nervous that it will either irritate the skin causing another OB, or spread the previous OB spot to a new more unpleasing one. Do your outbreaks usually occur in the same spots, or do they go to various different areas? Also, if I get oral sex while I do not have any symptoms, how common is it to pass it to the mouth? Thanks again for responding...iv got more questions coming!
  8. So I am just healing from my very first herpes outbreak, and from the start (about 2 weeks or so ago) I started having pain in my tail bone and left leg. The outbreak is on my left rear end inner area. Sometimes the pain runs down to my heal. Does anyone else deal with this and is it normal???? It's almost like a sciatic pain, but also involves the skin...very sensitive to the touch...even if it's no where near the OB sight. Any info will help! Thanks!
  9. Hello all, Im so glad I found this forum and hope it helps me. I just found out that I have contracted the herpes virus from a man I have been seeing over the last few months. I have always been so careful about my sexual life, until recently. I am a married woman who has been having marital problems. I ended up falling in love with another man. He and I began a relationship and as if my life wasnt complicated enough, this happened. I am scared. I have no idea what to expect. I have an outbreak of about 6 sores around my rear end area,but am scared to death it will show up anywhere else. I keep thinking I look dirty, and also do not know when to expect another outbreak. I am starting to heal....I think, but then again have no idea. I am itchy again near the same area, but the sores are healing. Im scared there is more coming already. I told my Husband who is aware of the affair. He is actually being supportive of this, but I cant see how. Will someone please help me understand herpes and how I can live a normal life? Like, can I still shave without spreading it? Can I give myself herpes of the eye if I rub my eyes? Can genital herpes be passed to the mouth of no sores are present? I have so many more questions! Please help!
