HerpeSelect HSV 1 and HSV 2 Testing ELISA
On January 9 I tested for HSV 1 and 2 Using (Labcorp and tSTD)
My results were as follows:
HSV 1 aB IgG 8.0h
HSV 2 aB IgG negative
I tested again on March 10 to absolutely sure:
Results
HSV 1 aB IgG 4.92
HSV 2 aB IgG 2.37 Postive
If I am understanding some of what I am reading on the posts and other sites is possible
1. It is a false positve?
2. Is is possible that there has be cross reactivity?
It seems that people with HSV 1 seem to have a variance in test over time?

It could be a false positive or it could be a true result for hsv2. How long before the march test had you last had sex?
You can confirm your hsv2 results with a herpes WB.
