Reply To: Unsure what to do

Meaning i understand you said to get peace of mind I can always take the western blot but do you feel I need that for peace of mind? Do you feel I really highly don’t have it?

I keep on being nervous cause when ever you answer I feel you didn’t fully understand the situation and I just keep on having this feeling I need to explain myself more to get your accurate opinion, so can you clarify one more time that between my whole situation of exposure (once with condom and others hand to genital- see prev. Posts) and my testing situation that you still believe I highly don’t have it?

Cause all my doctors were saying I should just forget about it and move on so I want to make sure the doctor the expert like yourself agrees?

I saw you wrote once that the 2nd test quest gives on a different platform is better then the original so if the initial was low positive and the 2nd test came negative (and that’s why they couldn’t do the inhibition ia) is that reliable that I can feel super confident that I don’t have it?
And do you agree with your assessment before that I most probably don’t have it?

Now that I have the rash by my upper inner thigh and skin fold and the fungal cream didn’t fully work yet (after slightly over a week) it just gets me more nervous that it’s not jock itch but rather hsv2. So can you reassure me as well that it can take time for joch itch to heal and it doesn’t at all prove it’s hsv2?

So if you can please answer all the questions clearly so I don’t have any questions of what you mean and that I can feel confident that I don’t have it so I can move on with my life
(I rather not take the western blot if I can get my reassurance over here)
Thanks Terri and sorry for driving you crazy (it’s just I think every little thing is hsv2)
