In your honest opinion

[Nervous]

Terri thank you in advance for your time and service
I’ve had two sexual encounters outside of my relationship and have had HSV symptoms every since the first was unprotected vaginal and oral with a female on May 30 2015 the second was protected vaginal with condom slippage on 3 July 2015 shortly on 6 July I began to experience flu like symptoms fever night sweats and sore throat for about 3 to 4 days and it’s been down hill every since to date I have Itch on both sides of growing and thighs experienced joint pain, lower back pain,muscle twitching, headaches (daily), and feeling of light headed (similar to high blood pressure issues but it’s hard to explain almost like a floating type surreal feeling if that makes any sense) this feeling is normally at the same time every day around 10am or so but what bothers me the most about HSV is I have experienced the shooting pains (small shocks) all over my body, I sometimes itch all over mostly my face and I feel raw on my behind and back of my legs when I sit as if I’ve been sitting to long or in wet clothes I also have off and on anal itching but no blisters back there and for at least the past Month I’ve been battling with a constant itch on both sides of my groin and inner thighs which I’ve recently in the past two weeks been treating with blue star and I think is now starting to clear up as far as blisters I haven’t had any classic lesions but I do remember a bump on my upper inner left thigh in the crease back in September and currently getting over another on my upper right thigh towards the Back of my leg which I popped and only puss and blood came out of both I now know that these should have been examined and swabbed I went to my primary back in September and he refused me a herpes test stating that my problems mental and herpes would cause all of those symptoms but I did convince him to test me for all other stds including HIV I have never been tested for HSV but have gotten cold sores since a kid your thoughts

It’s ridiculous that he won’t test you. This is a big worry for you and he could have helped you resolve this one way or the other, IMHO.
Having said that, these symptoms do NOT sound herpetic me.
You can order this test yourself online at any number of testing services – you want IgG HSV 2. You already know that you have HSV 1. The cost is usually about $75 or so. I often use healthcheckusa.com for this purpose for people who live away from Portland. You do NOT need a clinician involved in this testing at all.
