confused

I was diagnosed with hsv2 about 3 months ago...havnt had an outbreak..i had 2 tests the second was type-specific & came back as hsv2 inactive igg. The first dr gave me a pamphlet an sent me on my way..but the 2nd dr said i wouldnt get an outbreak .. is this true? i also spoke to a nurse from  the sexual health clinic over the ph who told me "the blood tests are only 50% accurate & not worth the paper they're written on" and if ive never had an outbreak i should put it out of my head completely because i propably dont have hsv2. pls help im so confused

I can best help you if you post your actual test results - e.g. hsv1 igg 6.9 and hsv2 igg 3.2 or whatever they are - thanks!
