plleaseee talk me into doing this

plleaseee talk me into doing this
so i dont remember the guythat did it.
i think i know but im not sayin anything becuase i might be wrong again
plus im not for sure
but whoever it was
im 99% sure he gave me herpes.
ive wondered for a while, ive wondered since about sixth grade before i even remember any of it happening.
the other day i looked up the symptoms to genital warts, and iwas realived to confirm i have none of those symptoms but when i read the syptoms of herpes it was like i got punched in the stomach.
all the symptoms they list are all these thingsi have
random pains in my legs and hips
lower stomach pain (unlike any kind of stomach ive hever had,)
all these things that have been wrong wth me, finally just pieced together and the puzzel came out looking like genital herpes.
so thats when i got relaly upset and my mom asked what was wrong. i was so upset i let this slip; "i think i have-" but then i decided ireally didnt watn to tell her everythign so i told her nevermind and we got in a fight because she was all worried about what was wrong with me so i told her it and i told her why i think i have it and she doesn't believe me
she says there are perfectly good reasons i might have some of these symptoms and crap
but she did say she would take me to the doctor if i wanted to.

i want to know if i have it or not.
i just really dont want to have to go through that.
taking my clothes off in front of my doctor, and all that shit.
i know that if the tests come back saying i have it my mom might actually believe me.
but then im afraid it'll bring up more memories.
i want to remember who did it, but im good not remembering everything that happened to me.
im afraid my mom will be mad at me. im afraid she'll think i just got it from messing around with someone.
but i want to know
i really really need someone to try and talk me into this.
my friend told me only I can talk myself into it but, im hoping thats not true and i think its worth a shot to ask some of you guys to give it a go.
pretty much i just dont want to take my clothes off in front of my doctor. and be naked in a little tiny room with just him.

but plleeeasseeeee try to make me feel better about it so i can get over myself and go ...
thank you

Josh,

Going to the doc may be scary, but you will survive it. If you go, then you will know. If you don't go, you won't know. So I guess that you have to decide if it is worth it to know.

Whatever you decide, just know that you have friends here.

Love ya

Carrel
 
Josh,

Found this phone number. I don't know anything about this organization, but they may be able to talk to you about your concerns. Herpes Resource Center 1-800-230-6039

Not sure if you are a teen but, this is a web site i found for my nephew about basic medical concerns. It is www.coolnurse.org

Take good care of yorself, u are worth it.

A doctor is, by their very nature, one of the most trusted members of our society.

Let's put it in a more real scenerio. You're FAR more likely to die in a car crash on your way to see him than of him taking advantage of you once you get there and be examined.

If you don't go, you will always have to wonder if you have it or not.

I don't really know you at all and you don't really know me at all, but I care about you and I want you to go.

Let us know what becomes of it ok?
 
Josh,

One thing I would say is that You don't have to be in the room alone with him, In fact any Dr. that has a lick of sense will have someone else in the room with him while he does an exam such just for safety reasons alone, and especially if the patient is a minor. You mother would be a good one to take with you simply because she's seen you like that since you were an infant.

Whatever the case, it will probably still be embarrassing for you no matter how old you get. That is something I don't think any of us ever get over.

If you do go (and I would encourage you to), please know that you have a bunch of us on your side and wishing you a easy and painless as possible time with the doc.

Lots of love,

John
 
Hi Josh

You're having to deal with a lot of really difficult stuff. Is there a responsible adult you could trust to talk to?

Good luck, Tom.
 
Take a deep breath, Josh, and go ahead and do it.
Knowing - one way or the other - is SO MUCH better than not knowing.
You'll be ok. We'll all be rooting for you!
Love, etc.,
 
Josh,

I went through the exact same thing with a disease that I was sure I had.
Every day and night I was being traumatised by feeling that I had a disease.

After many years, I finally went and got checked out.

If you can forwarn your doc that you do not want to be physically examined and can he just take a blood sample which is checked for everything.

You need to do it, for your own safety, and even if you do have it, I have read that it responds to treatment.

Dont look on the black side when reading symptoms, look on the brighter side, and get it over with, you will feel a huge burden being lifted.

You could take your friend along for comfort,

Doctors swear oaths, where they declare their intentions regarding the welfare of their patients! If they stray from these oaths, they are out of a job/career.

Go and get the help. Take someone with you if you want to, don't if you don't want to ...it is your decision.

Best wishes ...Rik
