Just found out..

I thought it was a common yeast infection until I noticed some blisters and it was nothing I had felt before. Went to the doctor that day and confirmed the worst. My partner and I had unprotected sex and he said he had been checked out and was fine; I also regularly get tested and I knew I was ok.

I'm really scared and nervous of what will happen. The doctor prescribed me Valtrex. It has been a few days now and today is incredibly painful and it seems to be getting worse rather then better. I told my partner, now ex partner, and that he needs to be checked out too.

At this point I feel disgusted with myself and wondering what and if I can have a normal sex life ever again... I am looking for support groups or someone to talk to. I haven't told anyone except my ex partner and the reality is just starting to sink in..

I can't believe and I'm angry.. If anyone has any advise or information that will help, please leave a comment.
