I am 21 yrs old. I was diagnosed with Gential Herpes about a year and a half ago. Up until i was 18 years old i was a virgin, and had never even engaged in any sexual activity. I have only had intercourse with one person and he has been tested and does not have the Herpes virus. I have driven myself crazy since the day i was diagnosed over how i could have contacted this virus. I found out only because i was feeling lethargic and went to the doctor. She recomended that I have an std panel run to make sure that I did not have Mono. When they called me back to have me come in for my results I assumed it was because I had tested posative for mono. when the doctor came in she looked at me and said you have Genital Herpes. I was and still am so confused about it all. I can not understand how I could be diagnosed with this disease. When the only person to ever have any genital contact with me has been tested more than once since the day i was diagnosed and tests negative every time. The doctor did not put me on any medication, and since i was diagnosed I have NEVER had any out breaks or any issue at all. Could this posative result be a mistake? Or could I have contracted it another way? If i truely had this wouldnt my boyfriend whome i have been with for four years and that i have had unprotected sex with in the past have it? Should my doctor have put me on a medication.  any advice or help anyone may have would be great. thank you for taking the time to read this.
