What are the chances?

Hello,

I posted a month ago about my possible exposure, but am still very unclear and unsure of what is going on with my body. I have been tested at 10 weeks for IGG and IGM and my results were negative. In fact, the IgG read 0.10 negative. Problem is I'm still having symptoms of something and I can't figure it out for the life of me. I've been to the gynecologist twice and an urgent care about 4 times since my possible exposure and all other tests are also coming back negative. My pap smear and pelvic exam were also fine. My symptoms are vaginal redness, itching, tingling, thick discharge.....no sores! My symptoms have been this way since December now and it's getting really frustrating. I will be visiting a different gynecologist in two weeks, but does this sound like herpes?

I just retested today (16 weeks) and am awaiting the results. My 10 week iGg results were 0.10 but again I'm still experiencing symptoms and just want more clarity. I've notice a dry rash down there lately as well. This has been very stressful.

There would be less than a 5% chance if you were infected to seroconvert now. From what you describe though, the symptoms combined with the 95% chance that you would have seroconverted by now means essentially zero chance.

Remember herpes is not some default ailment when all else fails, there are conditions more tricky to diagnose than herpes.

I think you might need the new doctor to try different angles on your ailment.

Thanks, but I'm still confused on what this could be. BV, yeast, Gonorrhea, Chlamydia are all negative and I've been tested for them 3x. It's just really weird to me! What are the chances of being converted to positive after a negative 10 week IgG test?

No this doesn't sound like herpes at all, discharge certainly infers some other condition. Good idea getting a new doctor.
