I posted the previous question about my labs coming back negative but the interpretation was that I was positive for hsv2. Here is the response from my doctor just now. "Unfortunately this test is fraught with limitations, and can be very frustrating. Repeating the blood test would not clarify things. The only way to be definitive is to perform a swab of an active lesion, which it sounds like does not happen in your situation.". What I am I to make of this.

I had the IgG Ab test done. I have never had the blisters that I read about as symptoms. My test results say <.9 which says negative but my doctor interpreted this as positive,for hsv2. I don't want to get my hopes up but I'm confused. Should I have another test to confirm the results?

What are the chances of spreading hsv2 orally to my partner

Hi, I had my first outbreak about 7 weeks ago. I'm a black, dark skin man and it seems like the ulcers are healed but my skin is still discolored pink where they were. Will I be scarred in those areas for life or will they eventually heal? I feel like my skin should have returned back to normal now. How much longer and any recommendations to speed up recovery?

so..If I got tested in 2012 the test was herpes simplex virus lgG EIA and the result was 'reactive' and the interpretation is herpes Simplex Virus lgG "antibodies detected' what does that mean.?In all that time..I have had zero breakouts, no cold sore... nothing.. can I still infect someone.... horribly confused?

and if I did.... would his results be the same as mine?

Hello. I had sex with someone prior to getting STD results from doctor. He is threatening to sue me. I am a nervous wreck. I don't know what to do any advice. I am feeling lots of anxiety and starting to get depressed because I have no one to talk to. He is asking me to supply him medication and counseling.
