usually recurrences of herpes aren't inside the mouth.
no reason to think your hsv1 is genital.
i have like some pain inside my mouth but they told me that herpes infection usually affects outside near the lip, so idk if its herpes, dont think so. I will go with a doctor, but the true thing its that i have herpes i dont know if genitally or orally
hard to tell if you were infected in july or not. even the best blood tests still miss 1 out of every 10 hsv1 infections so narrowing down if this is new or not isn't easy.
If i belive to the tests it may be a recent infection, but i cant imagine a risk in this 3 months. The last mouth kiss was on june-july. then nothing just meeting people.
Hi grace so i post it here:
First test: (BLOOD) Antibodies. HSV-1 IGG: NON REACTIVE HSV-2 IGG: NON REACTIVE
HSV ANTIBODIES IGM I AND II: POSITIVE 2.00
So i repeated because they told me that igm could be a false positive and also i wasnt exposed in the last months, i tested because a prostitute gave me oral sex in january (No sympthoms).
Half an hour ago i received the second igg test and on tuesday they will give me the igm test because i repeated it too.
SECOND TEST: (blood) ANTIBODIES HERPES SIMPLE 1 IGG: POSTIVE 1.6
AND FOR HERPES 2: NEGATIVE.
I DONT KNOW. THE FIRST TEST IT WAS FROM An OLD BLOOD DRAWN because it was saved from an hepatitis test thay i´ve taken in the same lab 15 days ago and they told me it was useful for the new test. The second one they took my blood on tuesday and today they gave me the results.
Sorry if i write bad or something, im so nervousssss, wtfffff.
Ok thanks, so the igg values wont increase? i have RP 0.02 for type 1 and for type 2: < 0.50
both say non reactive
you have no reason to test again. move forward from this encounter.
Thanks for the quick answer Grace! So the most probable thing is that igm are a false positive and not the igg a false negative? I should do it again for more security or its over? No clear Sympthoms
WAY PAST TIME TO BE WORRYING ABOUT HERPES!!!! really, you are testing negative, stop wasting your time and money.
herpes igm testing isn't accurate. a + igm at this point is meaningless.
if you can't move forward from your encounter in january, seek out therapy for your anxiety.
