  1. Those numbers do indicate that you are positive for both. According to the type of testing it states that anything greater than or equal to 1.1 is a positive. There is a range in which they suggest possible retesting due to false positives, but I believe you are outside of that range. Odds are you have HSV1 orally and HSV2 genitally. The oral infection is likely something you've had for a long time and the reason those antibodies were so detectable. The HSV2 is probably the genital infection and new. But you said that the outbreak was due to oral sex?? As for the antibodies for HSV2 not being detectable the first couple of tests, that is possible with a new infection. If you are not comfortable with the results or the doctor, you can get a different doctor and get retested. Hope that helps! @MMissouri, THANK YOU! I'm a little nervous about what this means for my future love life. I'm sort of "talking" to someone now, but I know this is not the end of the world. If I have both HSV1 & 2 I believe I have them both genitally. I got the first outbreak and that's when I was tested and it came back that I have hsv1 the first two times. I have never ever had any cold sore on my mouth. I feel like if I had an outbreak on my penis i would've definitely had enough antibodies for it to come up on a test the first two times around. After that first outbreak I got a few more outbreaks. That's why I was so confused... Then after the 3rd test all of a sudden he's saying I do have hsv2.... Do the outbreaks ever just stop? How do you go about telling someone? Tips? Again thank you!!!
  2. I was tested positive for hsv1 and had gotten an outbreak on my penis (someone gave it to me during oral sex).. I was tested for both HSV 1 & 2 via blood tests TWICE and my doctor told me its hsv 1. I then got about 2 more outbreaks on my penis which is a very low chance if you get hsv1 on your penis (because it prefers to live on the mouth), so I became concerned. I went for yet another test and my doctor is telling me this time that I do in fact have hsv 2 also.. For whatever reason the "antibodies" weren't showing up on the previous tests. Sometimes I'm not too convinced with what my doctor tells me. Ive been seeing him for year and he seems very "in a rush" all the time, and even immature. If I have hsv 1 & 2 I just want to know for sure. I took a picture of my lab results.. Can anyone PLEASE tell me what this means? Its very hard to understand. Not sure what these terms are. I cropped out my name but here are the test results: http://tinypic.com/r/2lmrlw2/9 FRONT OF RESULTS: http://tinypic.com/r/actkya/9 THANK YOU in advance
