I had protected sex with female prostitute 4 months back . my igg test at 14  weeks are negative for both hsv1&hsv2
But i am having red spot on penis head along with burning sensation on penis tip.

You'll need to seek medical advice and a swab immediately.

Hi yesterday and today I have burning sensation with small size pimples on  penis head (tip of penis).
I am really worrying  .what is the reason for this? What I have to do to confirm?

[Fleetwood20]

Yes of course, German engineered tests undertaken in high standard Indian laboratories. extremely high degree of confidence.

The euroimmun test is taken at india so is it have accuracy?

[Fleetwood20]

There is no known technical reason that I'm aware of. Your body just produces a lot of proteins designed to attack viruses and despite the best attempts to identify an antigen that only reacts to HSV antibodies, a proportion of the time some unknown protein will stick.

Hello Mr fleedwood
Could I get the exact technical reason  for this?

[karni89]

What the false  rate of igm test ?
Basically hsv  igm test is for herpes then how it pick up other protein?

[karni89]

What is the false rate for igm test?

[Fleetwood20]

They have not been identified by the manufacturers, but we know it occurs.

[karni89]

What is other  protein  will give  false positive igm?
Could I get some accurate and clear information about other protein in blood?

[Fleetwood20]

This happens a lot with this type of test. Other proteins in your blood apart from antibodies can bind with the test to give a false positive reading.

[karni89]

Reason for false igm test?

[Fleetwood20]

Euroimmun is a German, high quality and highly respected medical company. There have been several studies comparing Euroimmun to Herpselect and they find 100% concordance in the positive and negative results.

[karni89]

Could i get reason

[Fleetwood20]

Yes that's a good test, as accurate as the other commercial tests available in the US for example.

[karni89]

What is the reason for false igm test?
I  read some posts here if people affected by chicken box virus or ebv or any herpes related virus then igm will give false positive.
But i do not have these then how igm tured to positive in my case?

[karni89]

All types of igg testing results are conclusive at 14 weeks?
.becasuse the test which i  took is euroimmune.

[Fleetwood20]

Good news! This is a clear negative for HSV.

The IgM is undoubtedly a false positive.

[karni89]

I fogot to mention that  my Hsv  igm at 14 weeks is positive.so am i infeted ?
