Me and my girlfriend have been sexually
active for about 2 months and change. She
started giving me head early this summer
and about 2 weeks later we started having
sex, and around this time she started
developing ulcers in the back of her
throat and sometimes on the top of her
mouth as well. She can feel when these
ulcers are starting to come through a
little pain, feeling like a sore throat
before they actually appear. They stay
for several days, around 5 normally and
then will go away for a week or more and
come back the following week. She has
been to the doctors and they say it could
be something to do with a deficiency in
her immune system, a lack of some iron or
something, which I have also read online.
She seems to get a sick a lot, much more
than I do or any other person I know
anyways. She seems to be sick at least
every month. I think it could be related
to stress, (in school I hear she is pretty
insane) or this immune system problem.
The other day she went to the doctors to
get tested for herpes, mono, and strep
throat. The results have not come in yet,
apparently they will know today (after
about two days waiting).
Another symptom which may be a factor is
that her vaginal area hurts, her friends
tell her it may be a yeast infection, but
she thinks its herpes or something, but
has to my knowledge not found any ulcers
or sores there. It is only now in her
throat and sometimes her tongue. When
they appeared this week they only lasted
for about 2 days in her throat.
As for me, I have no idea if I have
herpes. I have never had any symptoms of
genital herpes and I have never been told
to worry by a doctor. I'm 17, turning 18
this new years, white male and perfectly
fit. When I was going through middle
school I would have outbreaks of acne
around my mouth, upper and lower lip and
chin. But it was never really that bad, a
few pimples here and there at most. At
the moment im writing this I have one
pimple on the outside of my mouth near the
base of where my teeth would start, but it
is not huge or painful, just like another
pimple. Last week I had to similar ones
on my upper lip that went away in 2 days.
I also have a sore on the inside of my
lip, but I feel like it is actually just a
cut that can't really heal (its been 2
days) because of the direct contact with
my canine tooth. I remember biting the
area.
So mainly im worried about her. Does she
have the symptoms of herpes? Numerous,
painful throat ulcers, sometimes in very
back of throat, tongue and roof of mouth.
I have never had anything like that, so I
couldn’t have passed it to her, and we
are both the first person we have had sex
with so it rules out that. Or could it be
this immune problem, and completely
unrelated. Thank you.

In reply to #1:
are you sure she or you have never had sex
before, if you arn't lying, maybe she is,
it does sound like herpes, but i'm not a
doctor, but i've been looking up stuff
like that, and it does sound like what I
have heard, just wait for the test results
and we can hope for the best.
