Thanks for your quick reply. Needless to say I am extremely distraught and upset. Are there counselors that could help me deal with this? If so, where would I find those that specialize in it? I tried doing a search online,but just found OBGYN’s doing the testing.
Also, what is the blot test and how is it different from just getting another blood test?
My Dr gave me a prescription for Valtrx (I think that’s what she wrote), as a preventative to reduce exposure risk if my partner does not have it. My tests took 2 weeks to get back. She wasn’t going to give it to me until he was tested or we decided if we wanted to use it, but I felt better knowing I had it in hand when I left her office. My plan was to start it now and she said that would be fine. What’s your opinion: Do you think I should start it now?
