HERPES 1 & 2 BY EIA
HSV 1 .11 , standard range 0.00 - 0.89
HSV 2 .22 , standard range 0.00 - 0.89
So I see those and think good. Got nothing.
Then a day later two more test results appear
HSV 1,2 IgG & IgM (NOT TYPE SPECIFIC)
HSV 1/2 IGM AB Combined 0.50 negative range
HSV 1/2 IGG AB Combines 1.04 equivocal range
Based on the length of time since sexual contact, can I call the equivocal negative and stop worrying? As I said my provider did not cantacyt me that there was an issue. But when I try to ask about the test results, I am shocked at how little anyone knows.View Thread

HSV_1 RESULT 0.11 0.00 - 0.89 Index, HSV_2 RESULT 0.22 0.00 - 0.89 Index
HSV I/II IGG AB, COMBINED 1.04 <=0.89 IV, HSV I/II IGM AB, COMBINED 0.50 <=0.89 IV
The Herpes 1 & 2 tests appear to fall in the negative range, as does the IGM. The lab termed the IGG results as Equivocal-Questionable presence of IgG antibodies.
My Dr's office couldn't seem to explain any of the tests and together what it means. Any help telling me what it means?
thanksView Thread
