[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This has been fun but is no longer rings true.

OP discovers affair on Wednesday and by Friday evening has the results of full STD panel along with appointments with two lawyers?

I might have believed the appointments with lawyers if it weren’t the end of the year but there’s no way I’m buying that OP made an appointment at a clinic, submitted to exam and has the results back in less than 24 hours.

OP, you moved the story along too quickly, next time slow it down and you’ll have us the whole way!

Merry Christmas! [/quote]

She’s an MD, pretty sure she can get an STD panel turned around in a few hours.[/quote]

She may possibly could’ve provided samples this quickly but STI testing beyond one single urine test all require multiple processes that take s minimum of 3 to 5 days.. even if she works at an ER there’s no way to skip the line for immediate analysis. 
Plus- the comment where she says he probably has an STI is something she couldn’t possibly know and as a physician (doubtful) would never say something reckless like that. [/quote]

OP here. Anyone can get basic STD panel (HSV1 and 2, HIV, chlamydia, and gonorrhea) back in 24 hours, which I did after providing samples Thursday morning. Just depends if a lab is busy or not.

As for me knowing about his STD, I found an empty bottle of valacyclovir in the bottom of one of his drawers. It is used to treat herpes (and also chickenpox and shingles-- but he doesn't have those) and the prescription date is recent. That would also explain him not wanting to have sex in the last month.

But anyway, if you don't believe me, it is OK. Please feel free to skip the thread. Others asked how I was, so I responded, and i've appreciated the support here since this is difficult to discuss with anyone in real life, for reasons other posters have noted (namely, if we stay together my friends and family will hate him if they know).

Thanks again to those who have been kind and wise.[/quote]

When my ex was cheating he caught shingles god knows where . He traveled and f..d women in Eastern Europe. Shingles is infectious . But I can imagine your horror finding the viral suppressant.  [/quote]

Shingles is the same virus as chicken pox, and is a type of herpes. I gather OP knows this from her recent post. It is typically not sexually transmitted because if you have a mild outbreak with few or no sores, you can't really transmit it, and if you have a serious outbreak, you are usually not in any mood to have sex. It is more likely that your DH had the virus from childhood chicken pox and his travel or work caused him to get run down, causing the outbreak of shingles. All that's just to say, his shingles probably weren't from philandering and are not a type of the STD herpes.[/quote]
