Hi, the testing window was good but we need to know the positive range numbers for the test you took for herpes. Your showing numbers but nothing to compare them to. What is the cut off number for positive and negative

For example the most common test with numbers says anything below 1.2 is negative and anything above 1,2 is positive.
