Sooooo as yall know I just been having symptoms and no blisters and just basically in the prodromal stage of hsv2. I was like maybe I have antibodies now? it’s only been 4 weeks and decided to get a blood test… man it came back negative for hsv2 but I was positive for hsv1, which I been knew that, I been getting cold sores since 6 years old or younger that I remember. It’s like I’m not trippin but I am… I tested negative for everything literally… and I know it’s something wrong with my body with this weird prodromal stage. I’m going to try again in October and in November after that I give up on wondering if I got this mf …. I hope I don’t hell..

So I been having tingling and sharp pains in my genital area since all the other symptoms stopped since I started taking anti virals. I want to ask if there is anybody that has had all the symptoms of herpes except the blisters and sores?? I’m trying to figure out what to expect atleast mentally because i mean idk how to feel or what to do. I got my blood test done today though it may be too early….. so after this test I’m going to wait till October to take another that’ll be my 16 wk period ….

Symptoms I had was having burning sensations(penis to buttocks) , tingling, lower back pain, flu like symptoms, fatigue and felt like a fever and I had chills.!

One more thing does the tingling ever stop ? It like just comes and goes

Listen I see a lot of post and comments about people wanting to die. Pls don’t ! As hard as it is to not think damn I got herpes, regardless of what you think you are not alone in this stay strong and live your life. I’m trying to come to terms with it as well…. like it’s hard to come to terms with. I’m just here for the love and to let people know it’ll be okay ! I haven’t been diagnosed, but I’ve had all the symptoms and I’m just preparing for the worst. I started taking medicine before I got blisters so I hope it’s more under control when I do have my first outbreaks.

If you want to know what symptoms I had so just incase anyone needs help knowing what other are experiencing besides going to google.

1st day I had a tingling feeling in my genital area, and also some really hot sensations around the area as well.

2nd day I had a lil bit of clear discharge. The tingling went away.

I had flu symptoms my 3rd or 4th day. Discharge disappeared and I felt weak and fatigue and didn’t have an appetite either.

This is my 5th or maybe 6th day since I’ve had symptoms it’s just body aches and a lil bit of a headache for now.
I’m currently waiting on the blisters to appear.

Like I said you’re not alone just keep pushing through it I’m just trying to accept it and take this all in my self.
