An ELISA index value of >5 generally indicates infection. I don't know why the bio test was negative. You could try doing another lab ELISA to rule out any lab mix up.

i run 2 times of test. first i test on lab. it's show positive.
second times i buy home test kit to test myself, it's show negative
i'm at malaysia. i just want to verify whether the test at lab is correct or not, so i buy the self kit to test again by myself.
I'm so sorry, but I'm still not understanding you.
The self panel was run by a lab, right? you ordered it, but you didn't run it yourself, right? What you did run a home test for herpes that detects both HSV 1 and 2, you must be out of the US, right?
So who ordered the test that was positive for HSV 2?
Where are you?
I'm sorry, but I am still very confused about your situation.

i'm purchase Herpes HSV1/2 Blood Test at home bio test at http://home-bio-test.com/ to verify the result. but all show negative. (not invalid). so i'm quite confuse which result is right, is the lab or my purchased panel
I'm a little confused. What is the self panel that you got? Do you mean you ordered the tests yourself, but they were done at a lab? Where are you that you did a bio test at home for hSV 2? Can you help me understand this in more detail please?
Terri
the self panel i get for igg & igm all result is negative. but why lab show positive?
