There are more false negatives then false positives when it comes to herpes testing. If you test too early then you can get false negatives.
If you were diagnosed by a doctor then most likely you do have herpes.
If you have it on the mouth then it’s extremely common to have 50-90 percent of the world has it and you can get this oral herpes with out ever having sex. If some one with cold sores gives you a kiss on the mouth then you have a pretty good chance of getting it.
If you have had oral or regular sex recently then you can get genital herpes. Out breaks can occur back to back which may be why they are lasting so long, or your immune system is down (from stress or illness) the immune system helps to prevent and heal out breaks.
There isn’t much that would cause symptoms that are similar to herpes. Most of the time people mistake symptoms for other things like yeast infections or utis until they break out in blisters or sores.
I have herpes but have never had an out break last for more then a couple of weeks. You may want to talk your doctor about getting some kind of suppressive therapy. If your on some kind of suppressive therapy then you may want to ask the doctor about a different method or medication.
