What type of blood test did you have?  Was it a type-specific IgG test, such as HerpeSelect?

no theres no cure for herpes. its a virus.. like the common cold.. we can only suppress it. it can be transmitted in many ways.. from kissing to sexual contact... and you can definately have herpes without showing any symptoms.. many people show symptoms at some point in time but attribute it to something different but i think the stat is like 90 percent of the people that have it dont know it because somethin like 50 percent of people who have it never show symptoms. someone can correct those statistics if they are wrong but i think thats about right?
