I get cold sores when I get really stressed out. I am bisexual and when my girl friend and I were being intimate I decieded to eat her out. Both of us totally forgot that I had a cold sore. It was almost healed up and was not pussing or bleeding. I ate her out for a few minutes then remembered I had a cold sore. I stopped right then. I want to know if she can get herpes "down there?" How do we go and get tested? I have insurance but she doesn't! I need help please!!!!!

Yes she can get genital herpes from your cold sore.
Genital herpes is usually caused by herpes simplex virus 2, but it can also be caused by herpes simplex virus 1, which is typically cold sores.
I personally have genital herpes caused by herpes simplex virus 1. People with genital herpes caused by herpes simplex virus 1 tend to have less outbreaks compared to someone who has genital herpes caused by HSV2. They also experience less painful outbreaks.
I'm not sure how much herpes tests are without insurance. I've (luckily) always had insurance. You can always go to a Planned Parenthood or other STD clinic and get tested. You could even call them and ask how much it is to be tested. I'm sure it's not more than $100. Good luck!

My best friend has had genital herpes for about eight months now, and it's been really rough. She's had about 7 outbreaks. Everywhere I read it says it stops flaring up so much after time, but its not getting less frequent for her. She's been on Antiviral meds the whole time, too. She also has type 1 diabetes which she has had her whole life, which really weakens her immune system. Will it ever get better?
But after a friend share this video everything has changed.

Yes. Tests are rarely performed because they are almost pointless. They can cross react so determining which virus you have can be difficult. Most human beings on earth will have antibodies to 1 or more (usually a few) of the 8 herpes viruses by age 50 anyway. If she developes symptoms in the future, there are ways to cope with the situation. Theres no reason to burden her nor yourself with the anxiety as its far worse than the prognosis of herpes.

It can transfer that way. Talk to a clinic about free testing, check the incubation period.

definite! coldsores are hsv-one million (herpes simplex virus one million), yet they are in a position to be transfered to the genitals throughout oral intercourse making it genital hsv-one million... at no element in time can hsv-one million exchange into hsv-2 in spite of if its on the genitals hsv-2 (herpes simplex virus 2) regularly observed as genital herpes, yet could be transferred to the mouth besides the fact that it extremely is amazingly uncommon... the two could be transferred with or with out indicators present day because of asymptomatic laying off (the virus laying off with out indicators present day) oral hsv-one million could be unfold as much as 18% of days with out indicators present day genital hsv-one million could be unfold 3% of days with out indicators present day genital hsv-2 could be unfold 15% of days with out indicators present day oral hsv-2 could be unfold one million% of days with out indicators present day so as you will locate COLDSORES aka hsv-one million oral... is the main contagious form of herpes... purely one thing to think of approximately

if your banging some guy, then having sex with your
"girlfriend", both of you probably need to be tested for AIDS.
one other thing, no such thing as bisexual, you are either gay or not, there's no middle ground.
