How many have urethritis/clear discharge as their only symptom? 28M
Atypical symptoms (no blisters) account for a huge portion of hsv2
I had vaginal/oral sex with a ghsv2 positive girl a month ago. About a week after that encounter I started having on-and-off burning in my urethra and clear discharge almost constantly to this day. No blisters yet, and it does not hurt when I pee. It does hurt more after ejaculation though.
I was tested and negative on PCR/urine for:
Gonorrhea, chlamydia, m.gen, HSV 1, and HSV 2
I have not had a herpes blood test yet since isn’t only been a month but I never had this issue before and it just magically appears a week after an hsv2 encounter sooooo I’m assuming it’s herpes. Docs are so dismissive without sores despite the fact that atypical presentation of herpes (no blisters) accounts for 51% of cases.
Anyone else dealing with long term discharge and burning urethritis?
