I have done test before which would always come back negative but this year I tested again and I have tested positive with a 1.33 and I have not had any symptoms either would you recommend me doing the western blot?
-
@mr_hopp thank you for answering
-
Has anyone heard of the testing HSV-2 inhibition IA it’s supposed to be kind of like the western blot and rule out the false positives is this test accurate? or should I still consider the western blot I have no symptoms but I tested 1.33 on the IGG test and I got HSV -2 inhibition test as well and came out positive

I'm not an expert by any means, but I think you should retest. It's a low igg. I'm not sure what it should be after 2 years, but I think it would be higher. If you've had sex since then, but protected, you could have got it more recently. I still vote to retest though. Check out Terri Warren's forums and consider a Western Blot if needed.
Thank you for answering well I finally had a look at my results more carefully so HSV1 was a score of 34 and HSV2 was a score of 1.33 and yes I have had sex protected but it would be to early for me to test for that encounter for it to show up on the test I don’t know if you get what I mean? I’ve been trying to look at it but I can’t find it, I am just trying to find answers because I don’t want to infect no one else that the last time I want to do to someone

So I got blood drawn a month ago and I finally got my results and I was both HSV1 and HSV2 positive my HSV 1 was at a 56. Which I’ve had for a long time and occasionally get cold sores and my HSV 2 result was 1.66 I’ve never had any symptoms or outbreaks but I do have a lot of ingrown hair bumps could that be considered symptoms? And if I do have it it was from 2 years that I was with an ex that gave me 2 other STDs and it’s the last person I had unprotected sex, does anyone think I could have been a false positive? It makes me sad cuz I am older and I don’t have kids and I think no one will want to even take me serious. :(

Thank you 😊 my throat still feels a little weird maybe it just a sore throat hopefully
-
How likely is it to contract HSV 2 orally if you already have HSV1? I had a one time exposure orally about a week ago did not have any other type of sex but orally, me to him the next day my lip feels tingly and a week later I have a sore throat with swollen tonsils no fever or no feeling of being sick just sore throat and swollen tonsils, should I be worried?
-
I had sex last night and found out I have a yeast infection as well but I ended up having a what looks like a small cut tear kinda looks like a sore and burns when I pee and when I whipe I hurt up to my anal but idk if I am just sore and the cut is from having dry sex or the result of the yeast infection should I get the cut cultured? Does it sound like a case of hsv this is a new partner to me we've have protected sex but once I did have unprotected sex for a few second can I still have contracted hsv? Any comments help
-
@janedoe well I guess non of the places can't see me and I would have to go to urgent care if I do so idk if I am over exaggerating or not idk what to do cuz I still feel kinda soreness but I don't feel the bumps anymore they went away idk if I should just not stress about and just not get it checked since I already got checked and came out negative
-
So unfortunately I got these bumps on the outer part of my vagina by where my thighs hit and rub they look like little bumps that turn into a big bump and the are only swollen during the day and overnight they get flat but still red it's weird I'm getting kinda stressed out so I think I'm going to the dr to get them checked out cuz I just started a new relationship and I wanna make sure I know I don't have anything
-
@janedoe yeah no I'm not cuz I've had oral hsv 1 for years as well...yeah I have some like itchy parts outside of my vagina right by the time where my underwear hug looks like a heat rash one day I had them on one side 4 days later I have it on the other side that look like cuts but cuz I been scratching a lot...I took the test 6 month post exposure
-
@sunshineandwhiskey but why did you do the culture did you have bumps? Or what made you go get a culture? But before you didn't have any cold sores to make you think it was orally and thank you they do suck I've been having them for like a year now on and off
-
@sunshineandwhiskey the thing is I don't know if I have GHSV 1 I only know I have it orally and been having it for years now how did you find out you had it? Well I am gonna look into that because I am so fed up with having this its driving me crazy
-
@janedoe do I use the white vinegar like a douche?? And do you have hsv?? That's why you get BV? I did already and I am pre diabetic so maybe that's what's causing it not sure...I have gone to PP and to 2 OBGYN to see if they fine something different that's causing it
-
It's a OBGYN...I have gone when it gets irritated and only comes back positive for BV or yeast it does go away for a bit but come right back it's weird and annoying obviously but it's like the itching goes away and I feel like I'm in the clear and it comes back and it's like at least once it month it happens...right now I've been doing yeast medication I got prescribed 3 pills and take them 3 days apart but feel like those don't help anymore I'm just out of solutions and I need one quick
-
Back again with questions so I keep getting BV and yeast infections get very irritated and red down there and really dry I spoke to my gyno and he just prescribes me the same medication over and over and I think it doesn't help at all I got tested for hsv 1& 2 was only positive for 1...I recently started getting sexually active after 9 months but still getting irritated and I am dry as well can it be that i might have hsv 1 haven't had any symptom just the irritation and dryness what can it be I'm going crazy cuz I can't even enjoy sex cuz it hurts
-
@seeker1960 thank you its been 6 months since my last exposure so it is not a recent one but yeah you answered my question thank you
-
Ok so I got my lab results last week and my results were
Hsv1 igg >5.00
Hsv 2 igg> .62
And HSV IgM > 1.55
Everytime I take a these test the igM always come out positive and I asked the Dr about and she said every time I have a recent cold sore that that the igM will always show up positive is that true? Does anyone know?
-
@WCSDancer2010 ok thank you I am gonna try the link that you gave me for the yeast infections and get in a diet and if its still doesn't go away I will take the western blot test
-
@fix blood test I got my results already I was negative for hsv 2 but positive for hsv 1
And thank you thankfully I was neg
-
@WCSDancer 2010 so I got my results and I am still negative my results were .62 for hsv 2 and of course positive for hsv 1 which I already knew I've had it since I was younger do you think it was good checking at 5 months after exposure or should I take the Western blot just to be on the safe side or do you think its for sure negative?,
-
So tomorrow I find out if I have the H or not kinda scared but still preparing for the worse hopefully everything comes clear but we will have to wait and see wish me luck guys
-
@WCSDancer2010 I get my results in about 2 weeks so hopefully I'll have my answer by then
I might be allergic to the latex condoms not sure though
Yes I only used it once and after that one time I stopped using them they were too much trouble and yes I heard they are bad for you after I tried it
Thank you for the link I'll look into it maybe I'll find my answer there
-
@Bambina3 thank you dear
@WCSDancer2010 I got tested because I keep getting horrible yeast infections and BV I've been having them for a year now back to back and they all started happening when I started having sex with my ex (which I had been abstinence for over year before that) but at the same time during that time I douche and that when I started really getting them bad and I've been to the Dr multiple times and they cant find anything else but at the same time I ain't super positive because we always use protection (which I know you could still get HSV 2 even while using protection) and also I have never gotten a outbreak I have got 2 pimple like bumps but they had hairs in it so I was thinking they were ingrown hair so I didn't get them tested but I am hoping and praying there is another reason for my yeast infections but its been 6 months since my last actual sexual encounter so I am hoping to finally seal the deal and get the results I am hoping to get maybe I'll get some relief

Is it like this forum as well? Well I’ve had multiple test through the years since 2015 when I thought I was having symptoms but they would always come back negative I have them done 2015-2016 but skipped 2017-2020 and in 2017 I was with a new partner that gave me multiple STDs so that’s why I decided to do it this year because I started seeing someone new and was afraid to do anything and I tested and came back HSV 2 positive 1.33 and before I would get .78 and .66 so I was negative and well HSV 1 I’ve had it for years so it come up 34.1 or 55.2
