Here is what was written regarding my results. I don't see a value of 3.0. I'm confused when I called that there was a comment of "false negative" I was told no, I was positive. Any help translating would be great.
First Result:
HSV 2 IGG Type Specific
Value: 1.12. (My value)
Description
<0.90 Negative
0.90 - 1.10 Equivocal
>1.10 Positive
This assay utilizes recombinant type-specific antigens to differentiate HSV-1 from HSV-2 infections. A positive result cannot distinguish between recent and past infection. If recent HSV infection is suspected but the results are negative or equivocal, the assay should be repeated in 4-6 weeks.
Occasionally, a positive HSV2 IgG test may not confirm with the inhibition study. Advise waiting for the inhibition test result before initiating therapy or guidance.
Second Result:
HSV2 IGG Inhibition, Elisa
The HSV-2 IgG screening assay was repeated at Focus, and the result was not positive (ie, the index was <1.10); thus, the inhibition study result could not be determined. This assay is intended only for samples giving a positive index in the HerpeSelect HSV-2 type-specific IgG screening ELISA. A POSITIVE inhibition study interpretation indicates true HSV-2 specific reactivity, whereas a NEGATIVE inhibition study interpretation indicates that the positive screening index was falsely positive.
