What Causes Severe Genital Herpes?
I broke out with sores on vacation, when I returned I went to my Dr. for a complete exam and sexual transmitted disease tests. I ended up having herpes 2 in witch I will be on medication forever. My husband of 33 years swears he did not cheat, I certainly have not had any other relationships. This has ruined our marriage, my Dr. said due to my outbreak being so severe, I must have recently contracted it. I was tested last year and was negative. My husband tested positive recently, but has never had any symptoms. Is he lying? I believe he is..
