Re: Herpes Again
Yes, scary I think. I've found it difficult to get clear information. I mentioned HSV and HPV to my PCP and to my dermatologist. The PCP blanched and sputtered his answer; the dermatologist deflected the subject by giving an evasive answer. If not even medical professionals can speak frankly about this stuff, how are non-medical people supposed to get the facts? My wife asked the gynecologist for a whole laundry list of tests and the gyne acted as if she had never had such a request before. What's with that?
Anyway, what I think is that for anyone is really scared of Herpes, having sex with others is not something they should be doing. The wife and I get tested not so much for ourselves but so we might know if and when it is time for us to stop and not pass things to other people.
