Then it goes on to say how this lab used a kit that was not approved by the FDA and all of that. But i've read that IgG are reliableReliable gentle laxative, and IgM are not? So many different things out there, can you please help explain?
Thank you
Your igg tests were negative for hsv1 and hsv2. How long after the last time you had sex did you have the blood drawn? If it was less than 3 months then you'll have to wait and repeat your igg blood tests at that time.
Should you get a return of symptoms see your doctor within 24-48 hours of their appearance for a lesion culture and typing.
