Testing negative for hsv at 13 weeks is conclusive and no more testing is needed.
No a sore throat from herpes would not last 5 weeks.

8 weeks for hsv is a good indicator

thank you for the response... I did post in the hiv forum (not sure on the number of questions) and once today in the std forum and was referred here... and yes my anxiety is high... after a duo test on June 20th I finally put the hiv fear behind me and the testing I had done on May 20th came up negative on syp., gon., cly., hep. a-b-c, and hsv1 and hsv2... after reading on the std forum about testing Windows it would seem everything but hsv is conclusive... although the hiv test was igg at 13 weeks and is a good indicator? your thoughts?

with no lip or genital sores at the time the risk factor is close to zero. Is this the same affair from last march that you posted 25 questions in the hiv and std form as well? I ask this as appear your anxiety is through roof and would advise testing so you would know for sure.
