HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS 1+2 (HSV) Test lab report
Among other things , comment in a lab report reads
""Rising IgG antibody titres in acute and convalescent specimen indicate recent HSV infection"
Readings apart , in the context of HSV2, is the above statement correct ? If not what should the statement read or rephrased to reflect factual reality ?

The issue at hand is not one of a specific case but, but general remarks that appear in all reports. The view held is that IgM readings ,( not IgG) that relate to Recent infection . I am looking for a clarification from an authoritative source for a correction if necessary..
if you want help with your test results, feel free to post the actual results here so I can best help you - e.g. hsv 1 igg 7.7 and hsv2 igg .44 or whatever they are.
changes in herpes results are often meaningless. I can best help you if you post the results :)
