HSV test results (low positive?)

I recently received a test HSV 2 IgG test result of 1.22.  This indicated that I am positive for gential (genital) herpes.  I am not one who engages in risky sexual behavior by any means.  I truly understand that HSV 2 can be spread even if condoms are used religiously.  (i do use them religiously by the way).  The last time i engaged in sex was at the end of January 2010.  3 weeks later i had the first cold sore that i can ever remember having in my life and i am currently in my early thirties.  I have not had any lesions (blisters or ulcerative lesions) in my genital area or anywhere that I am aware of.  

I am scared to death of thispositive result.  I have spent the last few days online reading anything that I can regarding test results.  My doctor was not helpful at all explaining this to me.  He gave me the "you have been exposed" to HSV 2 reply.  I am reading that you either are positve or you are not.  

My result was HSV2 result was 1.22.   This test was performed 8 months after my likely exposure.  Since I had a cold sore, I am pretty psotive that I have HSV 1 although I was not tested for it, but the cold sore (that I am not at all happy about) pretty much confirms that, right?

I have the following questions regarding my situation:
(1)What are the chances that my result is a false positive?  
I read that there are a lot of false positive HSV2 results when your results are below 3.5. (2)Is this true?

you need to follow up on this with additional testing. a herpes Wb is the best course of action.

WSW,

I had a negative Herpeselect for HSV 1 and 2 at 4,7,11 and 16 weeks post encounter to have a HSV-2 positive via a different test (immunoassay).  False positives do happen, and you are in a category where you need to be retested before you can be diagnosed with HSV-2.

Demand a Western Blot test (performed at University of Washington) or a Biokit test be performed.  The Western Blot has helped many out there that had a low positive result via other methods.

Don't lose hope,

I'm still waiting for my WB to come back and hopefully will add to the false positive data on here.

Cheers,

Borat
