Why would a young person have shingles? Chickenpox (Herpes Varicella) maybe but not Shingles which is Herpes Zoster.
Shingles develops much later in life (60's or older) after a person has been exposed to the herpes virus like chickenpox (herpes varicella) or herpes simplex like cold sores.
If a young person gets shingles it means their immune system has been compromised.
Well, she got chicken pox late in life, then shingles in her 20's. That is what happened.
Everyone has something to deal with in life. No one is perfect... I do not run from a problem. I would rather work on it.
Whats to work on exactly? (on your end) She needs to figure this out conclusively. That's her responsibility and really that has nothing to do with you.
If shes ignoring you, let her. She'll come back once shes comfortable and has her situation figured out.
Ok...so she's probably upset that you're not listening to her.
She told you what her doctors told her, that she is allergic to latex condoms, yet you insist on using condoms and then also suggest she probably has an STD...
Getting tested is smart, regardless, but that's probably why she's all bugged out. lol
I can understand why she's being standoffish, she doesn't want you to reject her.
But to be quite honest she's making a lot of excuses for her medical condition which is undiagnosed and undefined.
She may know what her problem is but not sharing it with you.
It's odd to me that she's only been with like 2 people in her LIFE and has such a persistent gynecological problem. Whatever it is it's related to her immune system. False positives on tests? Persistent infection that won't go away with a regular course of antibiotics?
Anybody who's had chickenpox will test positive for herpes, that's a fact, but false positive tests? Why would they explain it that way?
Something sounds a little off.
How you deal with this is totally up to you, but I wouldn't have sex with her till I saw 2 clean HIV tests six months apart.
The doc says she's allergic to latex. I suggested the non-latex, so that was what were are using. We've not had sex since the infection had re-occurred.. I am not going to force her to get tested. She kinda hinted that she said I am going to force her to ket tested.. She then said, she doesn't know what she will do if she is positive. She said it would screw her up mentally. I said there is a treatment she can take, but it is for the rest of her life. She didn't want to do that either. I said, what happens if and when I get effected? How will you feel then? Her belief is that she's only been with two other guys in her whole life. One she had unprotected sex with for a few years, he's doesn't have it so she doesn't have it. Then she said she doesn't blame me for my hesitation.
However, I will be tested soon, and will share the results with her. So either way, she will know. Cause, I've not been with anyone else in near a year. I really do not know what all the fuss is about. And the cold shoulder she's giving me I do not feel is fair either. I like her for her. One stupid little virus is not going to stop me. When she first told me, I didn't run. When she thought she saw something, we talked about it, it was nothing and I calmed her down. Again, I didn't run. But I all I did last night was tell her the truth of what my doc said and what she should do. Then she went haywire. Going on and on on how she's always been careful and doesn't understand how she could maybe have it.
she may have only had two other partners but she is also sleeping with all the partners that other person had without protection.
maybe if she thinks about that she might see your point.
