IgM Results Postive...IgG Negative....HELP?!

Hello Dr.

I am 23 years old and I just got diagnosed with Herpes, although I have my doubts.  I have had no genital to genital sexual contact within the past 5-6 weeks (possibly more than that, i cannot quite remember and yes, it was unprotected) and the results concluded that I only have IgM antibody present in my blood.  This is what my results look like:

HSV 1/2 IGG, Herpeselect Type Specific AB  
Herpes Simples Type 1- 0.93
Herpes simplex Type 2- 0.09

HSV IGM Antiobody W.Refl titer
HSV IGM Antibodies were detected/ Ref. range was not detected
HSV IGM Titer was 1:20

What does this mean?

In addition to that, is there any way to tell wether I have type 1 or type 2?

Should I get tested again soon?  The Doctor put me on Valtrex and told me to do a follow-up in two months (I think that is only for my liver/kidney analysis).  I have been reading alot about the virus and the presense of IGM without IgG...could this elude to another infection.  Do I really have genital herpes?  What do you suggest?  How long does it take for IgG to become detectable?  How long does IgM remain detectable?  

Please help.  I appreciate your time.

This is not the doctor's forum, and I am by no means a professional, but here is what I think.  IgM tests are meaningless - I'm surprised you doctor even ordered this test.  The only reliable, accurate herpes tests are type-specific IgG.  From your results, it looks like you had the HerpeSelect test and are negative for both types 1 and 2.  HerpeSelect tests can take up to four months to become positive.  However, if you had no previous symptoms and your tests are negative, you probably don't have genital herpes.  However, get re-tested in a few months to be positive.
Good luck,
