Reply To: HSV-1 Questions

For the record I am not in contact with the person. I didn’t know her. As I stated before prior to my wife taking the test we only kissed 3 times after the encounter with outside person. When we did kiss it wasn’t very passionate. Can you transmit hsv1 from normal kissing without French kissing?

The other partner sent me snippet of test results that are questionable. I really don’t know her status.

Have you heard of anyone test results being positive after 8 days after the encounter and having high igG number?

I’ve been trying to rule out that this exposure isn’t genitally. I am not sure if I had an outbreak yet. I’ve read that sometimes outbreak can be so minor that you may not notice it.

My anxiety have been extremely high and because of it every itch and tingle sends me on high alert.

I am trying to move on from this.

If I also contracted this genitally would the initial outbreak be located somewhere on my penis or would it be anywhere within genital region?

After diagnosis I started to take l-lysine and monolaurin. Should I continue to take these supplements or do think at this point I may be asymptomatic?

If I am shedding at the time and somehow lick my lips and touch my eye can spread hsv to my eye? For the record I do t plan on doing this!

I want to understand all of the associated risk.
