Coffee20 Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 Few days ago I woke up and felt like I have flue - the same feeling I used to have during the relationship with my ex, though yesterday I felt just worse. I went to a gynecologist and yes I was infected by HSV-2 (herpes), I remember I have those symptoms after the first sex we had but I didn't pay enough attention, the rash disappeared after a few days then it returned back like two times but these days (maybe I am stressed a lot) it just got worse. So is it possible that I was infected by him? Could he catch it by someone else??? Or I am not sure how this illness can be caught only by sexual intercourse? I didn't have these problems before I met him. It's the second time I was infected by some intimate illness during our relationship.
polish26 Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 Since you have been diagnosed you should be on medication at this point then correct? If not you may want to look into it. I found out that my ex gave me HSV-2, 5 months into our relationship, which then carried on for another 3 years but I couldn't forgive her for not even warning me that she knew she had it since she was 14. Stress will definitely cause the virus to activate and show itself, also it isn't just spread via intercourse but can be spread by touch of the skin if there is any type of viral shedding happening... I would suggest searching what viral shedding is so that you can get a better idea of what that is. If that is the second time you received an illness from him, the first time being at the beginning, and the second later on, then I would say there is a could chance he may not have been faithful. If you have any questions please let me know, and I would be more than happy to speak with you on the issue.

Yes I am on antiviral drugs, I also bought some herbal medicine online. The first illness was mononucleosis....I got it in May/June last year and got the first symptoms in September and the progress was hard...I know that this illness I could catch any other way and not exactly from him...but just don't know how, because I was just at home and was learning, didn't kiss or share anything with anyone only with him. When I told him I have mono he blamed me for it and told me there was no way or possibility to catch it from him, though he went to the doctor and really had it in his blood. Still he blamed me for it. I have just read that herpes below my waist can be catch almost only by intercourse. I actually shared things only with him and was intimate only with him. I am again very angry but no I am not going to break NC this would only cause a big fight and he would blame me again.
