Hello,
I recently broke up with my ex in late January because I found out he’s been cheating on me with a lot of people. Between January 13-21 we had unprotected sexual intercourse everyday.
On February 1st I got a blood test out of paranoia that I might have gotten something from him. (At the time of this blood test it’ll be almost 3 weeks from “initial exposure”). The test result came back and my HSV 2 IgG value was 0.95, equivocal. But my incompetent gynecologist told me I tested positive for genital herpes and just told me to go back if I ever get any symptoms.
I have a pretty neurotic personality and being inbetween negative and positive for this incurable virus has caused me a lot of distressed. So 7 weeks after my first blood test (10 weeks after “initial exposure) I went to planned parenthood in hopes of getting a confirmation blood test.
I spent a lot of time arguing with the doctor who advised me against this because the CDC disapproves of herpes testing with blood sample. Ultimately I was able to get a blood test and my HSV 2 IgG value came back 1.05 (0.10 higher than the first test but still equivocal).
Ive had no symptoms at all not even the mild symptoms that usually go unnoticed.
I’m just incredibly confused as to whether I have genital herpes or not. I’ve tested equivocal for it twice already. The fact that my IgG value increased by 0.10 within the 7 week period is telling me that I most likely have it.
I don’t know what to take from all this. Please help!
Thank you
