HERPES TEST RESULTS

[worried_down_south]

I need help interpreting results of herpes testing. We were both tested for HSV Type 2. In July, HIS test results were= IGM 0.13, IGG 2.30 In July, MY test results were = IGM 0.12, IGG 3.64 In September MY test reults were = IGM= 0.1, IGG = <2.0 What does it all mean?

well honestly at this point you can't even be sure you have hsv2 to be honest.

was he tested?

[worried_down_south]

yes this was only HSV2.

I have had one outbreak that looked like herpes, 5 days after first sleeping with him. So I want to know if he gave it to me or if I had it before. I didn't have a culture only the blood test during the break out.

Thanks

so these are specifically hsv2 results only?

his hsv2 igg 2.3 is a low positive.

your hsv2 igg 3.64 is also on the low side. your repeat igg of less than 2 is also low. if neither of you have had genital symptoms, both of you getting herpes WB blood tests is the best course of action to find out if either of you really do have hsv2.
