The combo tests mean that you are positive for hsv1 OR hsv2 OR both.
You knew already that you have hsv1, so that could easily account for your positive test. If you had a need to find out if you had hsv2 - if you had a known exposure, had symptoms, etc. - or just want to know, then you should get a type specific blood test again.
