 Question:
					 | 
					 | 
				 
				 |  
				
					| My regular and longterm girlfriend came back last week from a holiday with a girlfriend in Egypt.  She was particularly ardent and attentive with me despite having very badly blistered lips (from the sun) and more general sunburn.  I shaved immediately before going to bed to make life more comfortable for her.   Within two days I have become covered with what looks like severe acne in all the places I shaved, and the lymph nodes in my neck are sore. As part of our lovemaking she gave me oral sex and I now find one small spot on my penis (nothing like as big as those on my face) but with the same darker centre.  Being an internet junkie I checked out the symptoms on a self diagnosis site and got the answer 'herpes' back.  I shall be going back to London in a week and will have a thorough check up, but in the meantime should I be concerned about her fidelity?

					| Thank you for your inquiry.  At this point, I would recommend that you consult a doctor for a complete history, physical exam and possibly some lab. tests to better determine the cause of your symptoms.
