About a week ago, I went in to urgent care because I thought I might have had a bladder infection (which I did), and to check up on a sore that had appeared in my genital region a couple of days prior to going in.
They swabbed the sore and just called me back saying I have herpes.
What I am confused about is the fact that I have only had sex with one person in my entire life. We've been dating for about 2.5 years, and were both virgins. I KNOW that he has never cheated on me, and I have never cheated on him.
So, if we have been in a monogomous relationship, how could I have gotten herpes?
The doctor (or nurse?) who talked to me said it was a possibility that I could have gotten it from a toilet seat... But from what I have read, that is VERY unlikely.
The only other thing that would make sense is if either of us had cold sores ever, but I don't think I have.
Is it possible I was misdiagnosed?
