Infectious Diseases Specialist, Dr. Arun's Response
Hello,
Thnx to contact us. I understand your concern.
If I am your treating doctor I advice you that it is not a herpes. Herpes simplex has very short incubation period that of 10-15 days approximately. you have crossed 35-40 days after exposure so it is unlikely to herpes simplex. But I advice you to go for HIV testing. Since you have some fungal infections, which raises the suspicious of HIV. I will be happy to answer more of your concerns, kindly know me, Wish you a very good health at health care magic. Dr. Arun Tank. Infectious Disease.
