The Truth: What's Really Been Happening | Get Ready With Me

It sounds like the doctors DID have answers for you, you just did not like the diagnosis. Please pay attention to the rest of these comments, this is definitely an STI, your partner should get tested asap, some viruses go dormant for years.

[@melissaw6446]

So...why is the BF feeling so guilty? Even though he has been "tested" for all of those things? I would not believe him without seeing the legit paper work. Please don't be so desperate to have a boyfriend that you are blind to what could be going on. I'm not a nurse or a doctor, but I work for several of them. This sounds like herpes.

[@melanievanloon7299]

Someone can have herpes without knowing It. Not every person has symptoms and they don't test this during standard STI tests. The only way to find out is when there are actually blisters and they can test that fluid. So there is absolutely a way hè didn’t know this!!

I agree, I was seeing a guy a couple years ago and I had to go into hospital for sudden surgery, and he didn’t say anything or text or call or wish me luck, he basically just said “oh okay”. And it made me realize if he can’t even meet the bar that is on the ground, he’s not worth anymore of my time. Unfortunately it’s true that we as females do appreciate that bare minimum behaviour because horribly, it is hard to come by.

[@gmagain]

An STI for sure. You need to get a vaginal swab and specific blood testing panel for sexually transmitted diseases. Urgent care don’t really do all that. Go to your gynecologist. Or even planned parenthood. Please before considering getting sexually active with someone new, both should be tested for everything so both know where they stand.

Even if that's the case, it's none of our bizz of random ppl on the internet. That's up to them as a couple. Plus the % of active adults over 18 who have or had a sti is pretty darn high. Think more a rareity to find someone who hasn't had one. Even if we consider mouth cold sores sti as well because still same issues effect of herpes which can then cause issues if mouth touches other things. Plus most common virus we have without a huge embarrassing stigma around are herpes based already. So even if it is one of them has or had a std , it's not the end of the world. It sucks, ya. But it's not anything we as strangers need to then be even more abrasive towards others about because that's why now ppl are too scared to tell someone else.

If all this started right after getting sexually active again, he might want to get himself checked out again (if it's an sti/std, you most likely caught it from him). 😬 I think with men, they don't usually get as bad or noticeable symptoms as women can, so he very well might have something but just not know it.

So glad that you’re feeling better. I’m not sure if you will see this, but your symptoms could possibly be attributed to HSV-1 or 2 (you can contract both strains genitally). If they did not do an actual swab, this could explain why the blood tests were negative, as you won’t test positive for several months. I’m definitely not a doctor, but just a possibility. Just want to add that in the case it is, HSV is so common and nothing to be ashamed of. It had been stigmatized because it is not normally tested for so most people with it do not even know! Sending well wishes ❤️❤️ I also just want to add, in case you see this, that I had a very similar experience and it is traumatic for your body to work against you while dealing with unempathetic nurses, but time heals. Just know that you’re not alone, and you made me feel less alone in going through that.

@@TheBakingSlave It would definitely be unacceptable if he knows and did not disclose. Sadly, men are even less likely to show symptoms (or brush them off as something else) but women are more likely to contract it, which contributes to the spread. The lack of education about herpes in America is sad and it’s why it’s so stigmatized. But in regards to Cassie, this is all speculation. Hopefully, however, at least one person can learn something new from my comment.

[@mina4002]

Agree with the above. This may explain why the antibiotics were not effective as HSV is a viral infection. Usually, it is recommended to start the antiviral (valtrex or acyclovir) within the first onset of symptoms. Please note that the antiviral will not cure the infection. It simply suppresses symptoms and reduces viral shedding. Hope you feel better .

My sweet love, never minimize a UTI....they can easily spread to the kidneys and yes, even be fatal and dangerous. Also, UTIs dont just pass, you need antibiotics as its an infection. I just wanted to clarify that in case if it ever happens to you or an audience member. Im only at the beginning of your vid, but in case if you ever suspect its that again, stand your ground, because yes, they can be very painful and make you very ill. I did see people mentioning HSV 1 and 2. Im still at beginning of vid and don't know if you figured out whats wrong, but if it was or is that and your new partner is the one who spread it to you, knew they had it and didn't disclose it before being intimate then they are terrible (if they knew). If thats what it is, he has now put you at risk and given you something for life.

Just a quick note in case you see this - I had a somewhat similar experience and I ended up having Crohn's disease. Sometimes the manifestations of Crohn's are vaginal and every doctor I saw missed it. I was misdiagnosed over and over again, including with HSV2 which I don't actually have. I was in terrible pain and was running a fever almost constantly for a long time before I saw a doctor (she used to be a midwife) that took the time to look into what was happening and suggest it might be Crohn's disease. This may not be what you're dealing with, but it is worth exploring since so few doctors understand or know how to identify the vaginal impacts of Crohn's and vaginal issues can often be the first sign that you have the disease.

Cassie, I had the same exact thing happen to me about 7 or 8 years ago. My Urologist told me it was in my head. I flipped the hell out and demanded he do exploratory surgery. I was sick of having to go each week to the Urologist only to be told that I didn't have an infection but was put on antibiotics anyways. I do have a history of stones and UTIs so I didn't think that was the issue and scans proved me right. He decided to take me into surgery and guess what? It wasn't in my head. I had urethral stenosis which causes bad UTI like symptoms without infection. He stretched my urethra and now I have been symptom free for over 7 or so years. Urethral stenosis can be caused by history of stones, UTIs. It causes scarring and this can cause the urethra to narrow. I had bad spasms in my urethra as well. That was for the birds!

If you were in that much pain a good nurse would've given you some pain meds before putting in the catheter. As an RN I would've insisted on it:(

[@dangerbirb4981]

The last time I was in the ER the nurses didn't believe I was having an allergic reaction to my new medication even though I was bright red, covered in hives, and my throat was closing. They thought that I had taken some sort of illicit drug and gotten a bad sunburn (I was a pasty white kid at the time.) Meanwhile, I was breaking out in hives everywhere, even on my nethers... which is the most bizarre feeling I've ever had. I felt like my whole body was erupting in painful tingling. They admitted me but all they gave me was saline. Thankfully, I was able to weather the rest of the reaction on my own. My throat was the scariest part but it stopped at feeling like I had a huge lump in there and eventually went down. Being underaged, the most frustrating part was not being able to advocate for myself. I was so confused by their treatment that I didn't even try to argue, just let them treat me however they wanted. I'm glad there wasn't a worse outcome. I have a family member who is a nurse and she has all the empathy of a toilet brush so I'm not all that surprised. I guess I'm more surprised that it happens so often. Never stop asking for what you need!

I'm glad you are feeling better! Unfortunately a lot of women suffer utis and other inflammatory issues down there during/after "honeymoon" fases. Make sure you ALWAYS pee and wash up well after, even if all you want is to cuddle, you can do that after. And have him wash up before if possible, that really helps reduce bacteria that gets pushed up into the urethra. These tips have greatly helped my partner and I prevent me getting UTIs.

[@theMoporter]

Sounds like it wasn't just a standalone infection, but these are still good tips. I take 2mg of D-Mannose every day, it's a really great preventative for anyone who keeps getting them over and over. Some unfortunate people are just stuck with them no matter what, - runs in the family. After I started on this, about 7 years ago, I've only had maybe 2 UTIs and they were both due to getting stuck in bed with a flu.

[@mandigurl2341]

I knew my husband was the one right away. We both had really tough things happen in our lives and two years of dating. Soon after we started dating, we found out my birthday would fall on his brothers (destination) wedding. He couldn't stand the thought of me being alone, so he asked for his parents permission and personally called my father to ask his permission to take me. I met his entire family, and they were so kind to me. This falls under happy stuff. A few weeks later his grandmother passed away. I didn't know what to do, but I made him cookies and a card and offered to give him space if that's what he needed. Later that year, my physical disability gave me some flare ups, one of which led me to the ER. He stayed by my side the whole time. We didn't get home until 5 am. He kept in contact with my family. We stayed by each other's side when we switched majors, and when my sister almost successfully ended her life. I fell completely apart and he saw the horrible raw version of me and still stayed. I think it's good to have hard things in the beginning, it helps you know how they will be under stressful situations, and how you will be as well. Best of luck!

I'm so glad you're feeling better. What happened in the hospital was not ok. If you were not consenting to continue a procedure and the nurses continued, that may be battery depending upon your jurisdiction. Your trauma response was completely understandable. You're not a "weird" case. You had legitimate pain and anxiety - hospital staff need to work with you on that. You can file a complaint with the hospital and your state's medical board if you feel that is something you want to do. You are empowered to handle this how you think is best.

I got a herpes virus from a past boyfriend's cold sore that he had inside his mouth. (I hope you can imagine what I am not allowed to say on YT as to how it happened!) I had very similar symptoms: felt ill, had a fever, and burning with urination. I was lucky that it cleared up on its own and never recurred. That boyfriend and I learned to avoid "activity" when he had another cold sore. Also, when I was married to my late husband, I used to get these smelly infections called bacterial vaginosis. He had no symptom of it. Though it is not classified as an STI, it can still be spread that way. Never had that with any other partner, before or since. Thankfully, a round of antibiotics takes care of BV! Just my experience... I have chronic mental and physical illnesses. I certainly have run into my fair share of mean medical professionals in my life. So, I hear you! Brightest Healing Wishes! 🤗💜 ~ Anastacia in Cleveland

When I had my c section years later I told them absolutely no catheter until I had the spinal block, like I was adamant!
