Should i retest?

[blue617]

So i received protected and unprotected oral sex off a CSW in bali and a little bit of protected intercourse , i have had no visible blisters or sores and i got a igG type specific blood test exactly 10 months post exposure and results came not detected for type 1 and type 2 and said there is no serological evidence of infection with either type on the test, should i retest later or is this test at 10 months post definitive and conclusive

Im not sure what you asking any more, you tested negative and if you dont trust the test have another one. To keep asking the same questions is not getting us anywhere.

i have only had the one encounter 1 year ago and got tested negative ogg for both types at 10 months post if the doctors doesnt think my symptoms are herpes what should i do ?

[Life360_Dave]

only unless you had a new affair since the test.

[blue617]

what are the chances of the tests turning positive 2 months later? dont know whether to trust the doctors and there opinions anymore

[Life360_Dave]

If your not certain of your test results then have another test and then all your questions will be answered.

i have just recently has some dots like things on my shaft and a burning sensation on my testicals the dots about three very tiny spaced apart they dont hurt i went to the doctor and he examined and said that they dont look like herpes blisters or herpes related so with that i have had :
negative igG - type 1 & 2 - 10 months post exposure
2 doctors opinions saying that it is unlikely that i have herpes
1 doctor saying i wouldnt have gotten it from 11 months ago with negative results and no primary infection
and 1 doctors opinion the symptoms are not herpes related
what are the chances that its just fungal infection and not herpes
dont know what to do or think? opinions would really be appreciated

You had a very good test and you can trust the results. False negatives are most often from a swab culture not a blood test.

could someone please answer ???

[blue617]

what are the chances of a false negative???

[blue617]

an answer would be greatly appreciated

[blue617]

i really dont know why but after everything i have read on the internet about false negatives i feel like i have it  despite my results  , i have no faith in my negative tests because all i have read can you shed any light on this?

[Life360_Dave]

reread what i posted.

[blue617]

if i did want to retest to be sure there wasnt a flaw in the test cause i read there can be HSV-1 how long should i wait to test again (i havent had any encounters since this one so) ?

Hi, your results are conclusive so no need retesting.
