Chances of Herpes

I have recently had unprotected sex 3 times in the last 5 months with a friend, both vaginally and orally. She states that she has never had any type of STD, issues, etc., not even a yeast infection! 2 months before having sex with her, I was tested for the major STD's, all of which came back negative. She has recently been tested for the major STD's. She had the following results for her Herpes test:

Herpes Simplex IGG Type I:  5.23
Herpes Simplex IGG Type II:  .12

My understanding is that she is showing postive for Herpes I. I don't know what the significance of that number represents?  

Here are my questions:
1. What does the 5.23 represent?
2. Because I have not previously contracted HSI or HSII, am I at a higher risk of contracting the virus, even if orally?
3. If I were to get the same test in 3-4 months for Herpes I & II, and the results come back negative for both, can I assume that I have not contracted Herpes? If positive for Herpes I, what does that mean?

Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. I'm a little freak'd out!

She has type 1 thats a sure thing.Well if she gives u oral sex she can spread it to u. If i were u though i would take my chances. I have been giving a guy oral sex now for about 6 months to a year & far as im aware he does not have type 1 at all. I have type 1. But i mean if u dont want to chance it dont chance it.
