My doctors are clueless saying herpes does not do all this.  So I hope
the knowledgeable members of this group can comment if individuals
with herpes show these symptoms ?

After having unprotected sex with a lady 7 months back I have
progressively shown the following symptoms. It started with a
persistent pinkish rash (foreskin area) but no outbreak and some very
faint dark spots on the crown. I also get itchy around my
jaw/mouth/cheek areas, particularly at night.

Two months after the incident I had a flu like symptoms with a mild
outbreak, very fatigued feeling with pain in muscles and joints,
especially buttocks/ thighs/arms. This was followed by lower back pain
with mild burning sensation, neck stiffness, headaches, dizziness,
unbalanced, nauseous and stuffy feeling. Now I have started having
arthritis like pain in hands and feet. Mouth ulcers, sore throats and
red rashes on legs and chest almost every month.

I have tested positive for both Herpes I , II and HSV6 but NEGATIVE
for all other common STDs, AIDS, Lyme, EBV and arthritis. I am a
healthy male in my 30s. I have had two mild outbreaks over the last 7
months. I don't mind the outbreak but these other symptoms are
persistent and making life like hell. I have tried many anti-fungals
and antibiotics for rash but no success.

So is Herpes causing my troubles or is it some other virus ? Any
suggestions for medication, therapy for relief from the stiff neck,
headaches and lower back ache would be most appreciated ? Will this
last a life time ?

Thanks a lot,

David
