My two cents on the subject...
I also did some research and once spoke to a doctor about Herpes when I was younger. He also told me along with the other info mentioned already that you can get Herpes and not have any symptoms for years. When your imunes system gets tired or you have some other illness in your life you may then see the symptoms.
Outing the two sw may not even be the issue. That is unless Jolly was a virgin before two encounters.
A frighting thing if you put two and two together is you could be with some one for years and then be infected by them or vica versa without knowing.
The doctor's advice to me low thoes many years ago, when I had my first scare with the clap "best to keep it wrapped at all times you only need to do things wrong once inorder to suffer a long time".
That also goes for getting cought mongering, which in my book is a far worse fate than a treatable std!
P.S. It has been a slow week in Waterbury....

It really dosn't matter....
[QUOTE=Bubba261]That's entirely true. The outbreaks I mentioned below are infrequent, but happen when she's overly stressed or tired, and mostly in the winter when people are run down anyway. Luckily it was caught "innocently" and is in an area of exposed skin, not any internal or genital area. When it shows up, we simply avoid contact with that area for a week or so, when it goes away.
PS - she's a nurse and caught it from exposure to a patient, not from any activity on her part whatsoever (and NO, like Seinfeld's blonde girlfriend, she did NOT catch it from a tractor seat....gotta be a Seinfeld fan to understand that one)[/QUOTE]
Where or how you cought it. Believe me I do not think any less of Mrs Bubba261. It is kinda like getting killed. It really shouldn't matter if it was drug overdose or getting hit by a car you still are dead. People just have something to gossip about. Unfortunately with STD's there are societal stigmas attached as well.

Jolly Rocks problem - more questions
[QUOTE=Jolly Rocks]
I also asked if I went back 3 weeks, would that tell me who I got it from, and again the answer is no, not necessarily, back to the dormant factor again. The only 2 I've gone bbbj with are Shyann from New Britain and Andree from Lucky's.
[/QUOTE]
Don't want to get too personal or too detailed here, but ....
Did you wash the area after these encounters? Does washing with hot water and soap right after help prevent catching herpes from a BBBJ? (Am I naive to think a good washing afterwards reduces the risk?) Did you have any cuts or zits or any other breaks in the skin that could have provided an entryway? Do you shave the area and did you do so shortly before these encounters?
I am not trying to be an idiot or jerk here. I am asking these questions sincerely in the spirit of trying to figure out how and when this happened with the hope that others will not suffer the same penalty. Also, I am a bit nervous too as I saw "S" once, about a month ago. Knock on wood, no symptoms for me.
Which of the two did you see more than once? S or A? Have you asked them if they have any issues?
Sorry to read about your troubles.

Washing and other protective measures
My $.02 worth:
Washing is ALWAYS a good idea. Suds up all the areas, even inside the hole in the tip (urethra?). Lather up twice or more. What the hell? It's free.
Also, try to piss as soon and as much as you can afterwards. Think of it as flushing the system from the inside out. Drink plenty of water before you start and this should be easy.
I also recommend staying away from the street girls. If they can't work in a house, or as an indy or agency escort, I figure they're desperate and are probably making bad decisions. If you must see them, go covered all the way and wash well and fast.
There are no guarantees, but there's no sense in skipping easy steps that can help.
I've gotten bbbj from escorts plenty of times and I've been lucky enough never to catch anything. Except for my SO, I don't plan to have unprotected intercourse ever again.
One thing that annoys the sh*t out of me
Is when I see girls on craigslist who request "additional roses" for a GFE. WHAT! ? To me, it's either gonna happen or it's not based on chemistry and/or attraction. It is not something that you put a $tag on, even if you are a prostitute. Although I suppose I should thank these girls for helping me eliminate them as someone I want to see.
It's a Holly Jolly Christmas ...
[QUOTE=Jolly Rocks]
EVERYTHING came back negative!!!
[/QUOTE]
It really is a Holly Jolly Christmas with news like that.
And thanks for letting us know.
Take care and stay safe.
I wouldn't celebrate quite yet...
[QUOTE=Jolly Rocks]In my panic, I did a lot of research online about herpes and I read that on one of the sites. Now I can't find which one. There's a lot of info out there on this STD, it's so prevalent.
And not that it's the best thing to get, but it's not the end of the world either, the more you learn about it. More of a nuisance than anything else.
I also posted a retraction on CL about Shyann, whoever was wondering. But lets face it, you never really know who has what, so everyone is at their own risk. I, for one, will be much more cautious from now on.[/QUOTE]
Now that you are Herpes free what was that spot on your Johnson? Possibly cancer? Shit now your dead instead of infected or worse you have to have it cut off. LOL!!!! I friggin hope you know I am kidding.
Shyann though the damage is already done. Tell a guy that has been acused of rape and proven innocent in court. Ask a few lacross players what they think.
