Low Postive HSV 2 result

[HG74]

I recently tested positive on the Herpeselect AB test at a 1.2.  From what I've been reading this is a really low positive.  I have never had any outbreaks, itching, nothing of the sort.  My blood test was taken on 1/15/11.

I recently have reconciled with my ex-wife, who had been celibate for the past 2 years(needless to say, I haven't been).  We became sexually active again right around Christmas time.  She was recently diagnosed with HPV, which led me to go get tested.

I would be devasted if I gave her HSV 2, so I'm wondering if my low score could be a false positive and whether I should re-test with the same test or with something different.  Also I tested negative for HSV-1

your hsv2 igg is a low positive and needs further confirmatory testing. since it was a little early for your herpes testing, wait until 3 months after the last time you had sex with anyone else and repeat it then.

your current partner should also pursue a type specific herpes igg blood test too to know her status.

The positive 1.2 result was for HSV 2.

My last sexual encounter prior to this test was 3 weeks earlier however I my first sexual encounter with her was about a month and a half before that.

My main concern is whether I should re test with such a low score and what type of test I should take.


Thanks

Was the value on HSV-1 or HSV-2?  I just want to make sure that was the number on HSV-2.  

When was your last sexual encounter from the time of this test?  

Grace can take a look at your results with that answer and best advise you.
