Grace, this morning received the HSV 1&2 igg test report (post 5 weeks of the encounter) and i was tested positive for HSV 1. The following are the results:
HSV 1: 3350
HSV 2: < 100
Reference:
250 but 500 = positive
How to interpret these results? is it reliable? I m devastated after getting these results and wanna die!!!
The reference missing:
Reference:
- below 250 = negative
- between 250 and 500 = grey area and retest needed
- above 500 = positive
are you outside of the US?
why would you want to die? most adults test + for hsv1 whether they can recall obvious cold sores or not. it's incredibly common in all countries of the world.
I m Asian. If is hsv 1 orally is still acceptable but if is genitally it could be a disaster and I m devastated. Can I determine the type (oral or genital ) of hsv 1? Is it possible?
Doctor had checked the bump inside my urethra and found that it is a blood vessel. I still doubt on it. Life is going tough now for me. Grace, do u think the negative result of hsv 2 could be a false negative as it was tested too soon, do u agree?
Grace, I need your thought on this: by rubbing my penis on her back how high the risk of contracting herpes and HIV if no wound and lesions /blisters found during the rubbing?
I think you never had any reason for any testing.
I think you probably never even had ngu.
really, you shouldn't be worrying this much about this sort of encounter.
you have no reason to think your hsv1 isn't oral either.
doubtful this is a herpes lesion.
