How accurate is my test result

[gowtham1919]

Hi,

I had a protected sex on Dec7th with a Sauna lady (To be frank i just penetrated thrice in her vagina and i stopped it)later she gave me Blow job and hand job.

From 13th day after this i had a totally dry mouth and yellowish urine which burnt when i was passing urine. I some how searched the forums and got panicking about HIV. But i took all tests and all came back negative.

after nearly more than 2 months, i had a bad pharyngitis and it is still present. I went to the Doctor and told him i m freaking about the sex which i had, he examined me physically and no you are fine. I insisted him to go for complete STD checkup and ended up diagnosing in Herpes type -2.
Herpes Igg was above 1.5

I still haven't got any symptoms or any sores near my genital. I m not sure what i need to do from here. He prescribed me with Valacyclovir(500 mg) on daily basis.

Do i take the test accuracy as 100%  and i m a host for herpes?
Do i need to take the tabled every day even when i m not having cold sores?

Please help me here.. Thanks in advance

I dont have access to western blot unless i call terry and join her as phone patient.

and did you mean back to back positive igg results are conclusive? or a WB?

The western blot is the preferred but if that one is not too expensive give it a shot. 2 positive back to back would be conclusive.

So they say that they do both the test, and this is what i did it on last friday for which the igg came as 1.4
So again re do the same test?

Not the igm the igg. if they dont know that the igm is not correct they dont know about herpes.

Got you... i just called the near by labs they said the bio kit is not available. They can again do the hepes select IGG and igm based test.

I m thinking of talkign to terry and get an appointment with quest. Do you think is that ok ?

Just touching would not force the virus into the nerve.
