I got my herpes results back .....
I havent had sex in months probably since December ...
HSV 2 IGG : <0.91 : index Range: 0.00-0.90
- Negative 1.09
-

- Title: HSV Type 1-Specific Ab IgG
- HSV 1 IGG : <0.91 : index Range: 0.00-0.90
- Negative 1.09

so I got .91 for both except the igm which I received a 1.35 ...my doctor .. did NOT write any comments concerning the hsv test and the rest of the std tests... does that mean Im negative ?????

being sick right now has NOTHING to do with anything you might've contracted back in May/June.

the herpes igm test has a high false positive rate. It should've never been drawn on you in the first place. Your doctor has upset you needlessly by drawing it :(  

you won't contract someone's genital herpes from mutual masturbation. there was never any reason for any testing from the contact you had.

What if I kissed someone that has herpes ..... and if I gave him a handjob and he fingered me is there that slight chance that indeed I do have it?????  because the 1.35 combination igm said HIGH ...I am sick right now and have a fever ...I took hsv blood test  at the end of aug... and the incident where I kissed him was in may/june ....

Disregard the IgM testing, as the 2010 CDC guidelines recommend. Your IgG is negative for both and since enough time has passed that shows you are negative.

Do you have a regular partner? Have they been tested as well?
