I was recently exposed to HSV2.  I know exactly when I was exposed and by whom....a I have  stupid, stupid mistake.  My question relates to timeline and potential transmission to others.  Here is my timeline:  I was exposed at 11am on a Tuesday.  I noticed a headache Tuesday evening and Wednesday morning but I had a few drinks tuesday night so I assumed it was a hangover.  Took some advil and it went away.  I had sex with another person around 7am on Thursday morning - so about 44 hours after exposure.  I had no symptoms that I could tell.  Thursday evening around 11pm I felt a little raw on my penis and work up Friday morning to 6 small, bumps.  My outbreak progressed from there.   What are the chances that I was already contagious when I had sex Thursday morning?  I know that you will say its possible but how probable is it?

By that I mean the bumps showed up...I think they were blisters looking back on it but they scanned over in a couple of hours. They were never open or anything. Just scabbed and the scabs fell off a few days later.  But I know for certain they were not there Thursday evening when I went to bed.   I did not see anyone and haven’t seen anyone. I got an IgG antibody test that came up negative.  I was not in my home city so I couldn’t get to a doctor and it all happened so fast.
