You can request an "IgG type specific blood test". That will tell you both your HSV1 and HSV2 status. If you decide to get tested, post the results here for us to help you decipher.

In fact, of the 1 in 4 women and 1 in 5 men who have genital herpes, 90% don't know it because they don't have or ever recognize symptoms. As to oral herpes, every 1 in 2-3 folks have it, the majority there as well never having symptoms. So, getting tested without having had symptoms is a responsible thing to do.
