Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, 30 years ago after going to the dr for a burning genital rash I was told I have genital herpes. Last month I had a herpes 1 and 2 blood test. 1 came out positive, I get cold sores a few times a year. Herpes 2 came out negative. How can that be? Did I every have genital herpes or was it just a serious rash associated to lotions and things I used during sex? The rash came on almost instantly after having sex with my husband 30 years ago. I would like to be able to tell potential sexual partners whether I actually do have genital herpes. I haven t had any sort of herpes type breakout in almost 8 years. I do have chemical reaction rashes that mimic the blisters and sores of a herpes rash. Confused. Thanks. d
