Q: Std Paranoia?
asked by: Brandonian on May 28th, 2006

Well almost 2 months ago (about 50 days) I had sex with a girl id met and we used protection except for a brief period we were without it (less than a minute). I never ejaculated if that matters. Anyways ive learned she has quite an extensive sex history and children to boot. This lead me to become worried I might have caught hiv or another std. I worried for about a week straight until I went and got the basic std test which looked for chlamydia/ghoneria and it came back negative. 3 weeks after that I started to have a pain on my testicle which progressively got worse and I was diagnosed with epididymitis and was given antibiotics to cure it. Now im back to non-stop worrying I might have something else. Yesterday I found my self itching my self more than usual and read that it could be symptom of herpes. I also I had some slight soreness in my groin and I fear it also another symptom. Im going to the Dr. Tuesday but im so afraid I have something its cutting into my everyday life. My friend tells me its all in my head and all my worrying is making me self-consicous or something like that. What should I do? Should I get herpes test?

I'm the same! I've had these bumps on my penis for about 2 years, and I am convinced they are genital warts (even though i'm a virgin).
I kinda got over it to the point where it would matter what they were and that I never really wanted to have sex anyway.
Sometimes it's better to be ignorant.

Anyway, herpes doesn't last... Of course it could mean no more sex ever! But from what I hear it's pretty much like warts, most people get one or two outbreaks then it never bothers them again!

I would be really worried about hiv if I were you. Once you get it you are on pills for the rest of your life! Now that's bad!

Well thankfully the white lines in my mouth were a sideeffect from another medication(antibiotics) I had taken. Im still worried about hiv but im trying not too. I took a blood test for herpes today and will know the results in a few days. Wish me luck:)
