Does anyone know this answer. I am waiting on an HIV test. Last possible exposure over 10 years. Have had various symptoms...how possible is it to never have herpes outbreak or symptoms and then have them while having HIV symptoms as well with exposure this long ago.

I don't think anyone can infer anything about your HIV status from your herpes outbreak. Herpes outbreaks can be caused by stress though, so if you are unwell and also worrying about HIV, then that may be the explanation.

Your test result will tell you everything you need to know.

All the best.
