Be specific: WHERE did you experience burning, itching? Exactly. How long did it last? "Lesions"???? Where? Exactly. What kind of lesions? Exactly. Why herpes test? How are you now? What was the diagnosis? Treatment? If you had first attack of herpes it would be painful, not itchy, and the blood test would not become positive until a couple of weeks later.
