I went to my gyn today to check on a red bump I got on the inside of my vagina. I took my most recent HSV test results (tested March 2008) for him to look at that my PRIMARY DOCTOR read to me saying I was NEGATIVE for both HSV 1&2.
My GYN is saying that I'm POSITIVE based on the test results!!! I don't know what to think!!? I waited over 6 months since my last possible exposure to get tested for ALL STDs. HIV, Herpes, Ghonnorhea, Chlymydia, Syphilis...everything. I even specifically asked for herpeselect IGG tests and here's my results for those:
Herpeselect-1 IGG = .3 Normal Herpeselect-2 IGG = .3 Normal HSV IGM Screen = Detected HSV IGM, Titer = 1:16
He said because the IGM is positive I have herpes! But, I tested negative in the IGG and hadn't had any sexual contact in over 6 months...not even one kiss! I don't understand what to believe, and my gyn said that my primary doctor misread the results to me. He immediately put me on valtrax as of today, when he's not sure if I even need it! He also said he would have thought nothing of that red bump if he had not seen my HSV test numbers. Yet he says I have herpes!
HELP!! Which doctor was right? Are my IGG numbers considered conclusive if I waited over 6 months to get tested!? According to my numbers and the time frame do I really have herpes?! I'm so stressed out! I drew blood again just to make sure, but not I have to wait a week for the results!
