Hi,
Last year my husband and I did std tests! Everything was negative for both exempt hsv1 5>, this year he is negative again and Im positive for hsv1 and hsv2 igg herpeselect test, index value 1.58> I'm confuse because of this paragraph under the result.
Name of the test igg Elisa inhibition assay.
"The HSV-2 IgG screening assay was repeated at Focus Diagnostics, and the result was not positive (i.e., the index was <1.10); thus, the inhibition study result could not be determined. This assay is intended only for samples giving a positive index in the HerpeSelect HSV-2 type-specific IgG screening ELISA. A POSITIVE inhibition study interpretation indicates true HSV-2 specific reactivity, whereas a NEGATIVE inhibition study interpretation indicates that the positive screening index was falsely positive."
My question is! I'm positive or negative for HSV2?
Than you,
