I'm I affecw with both HSV-1/2?

I recently notice a pimple like bump on my lip.I went to the doctor to get tested for all STDs. Everything came back normal but the HSV-1/2. For my HSV-1 the results said it was 29.90 and for HSV-2 it was 10.40. During the testing I was having lots of anxiety. I've never experience any kind of symptoms for either. Should I get retested for both just to have a clear mind or should I stick with these results? Thank you in advance.


This discussion is related to Test Results for HSV...although 1st number is combined HSV 1/11.

Hi if the test you took says that below 1.2 is negative then your results would be confirmed that you are positive for both hsv1 and 2 as the numbers are quite high and no need of retesting.
