It really depends what test you took, HSV diagnosis are very confusing....but it sounds like the doctor gave you a if they've come back clean (negative) for herpes, its most likely so....but have you been blood tested (IgG) is the reliable test according to doctors,forums, CDC etc.....
It seems the doctor gave you the right test****
