If You Have Genital Herpes... Posted: 03-02-06 20:56pm
If anyone on here has herpes and would be
willing to describe their first outbreak -
what the sores looked like (color, size)
and are they hard? Did they appear all
at once or did more show up after a few
hours/next day? Hurt to touch? Sting or
burn while urinating? Anything else you
think is significant about an outbreak...
It would greatly be appreciated!

Right now actually im pretty sure im
having my first outbreak...Both me and my
bf havent been with anyone but each other
for over a year now..So we are very
confused about how we got it..
Basically..I dunno if this is typical but
I am in absolute agony...I have red sores
on the sides of my labia, which have
swollen up and look pus-filled, it stings
to the bs wen I pee..Im in tears a lot of
the time due to the pain...My bf has had
pains in his glands and we have both been
feeling nausious and sick..I am terrified
as well because I couldnt imagine having
to go through this much pain...Are you in
a lot of pain too?

Genital Herpes Posted: 04-21-06 15:05pm
I just had my first outbreak last march, I
have only been with my hsband for the past
5 years, my dr told me that I could have
picked it up 20 years ago, it lays dormant
in your ystem until something provokes it
into coming out, mine being a long
antibiotic treatment and so my immune
system was down, letting it come out. The
sores are very painful and if you get the
cream and the tablet from the doctor they
rally help in clearing it up, otherwise
they will take longer to go away. They
can come back at any time, usually not as
bad as the first time. Hope this help
you. Its not something I like but I have
to live with for the rest of my life.

Ready Ask And Came Across An Answer Already Posted: 04-23-06 12:56pm
I was wondering why I had an outbreak when
my fiance hadn't recieved any symptoms at
all (he had experienced cold sored in the
past but that was 6 years ago) I had a
baby 2.5 years ago and I have been tested
with no signs of hsv at all. Only
recently did I experience an outbreak
which was a pretty horrible/emotional
experience. I realize now that even
though his was dormant that I could have
contracted it from long before I had my
outbreak. Will I know forsure if I
contracted it from him and if i've had it
before is there a way I can tell it wasn't
him that gave it to me? And if I did
have it for a long while, why didn't it
show up when I was pregnant?
