equivocal result

Hey,

 

So I was in a short relationship that started at the end of April and ended at the beginning of July, we started having sex at the beginning of May.

 

I got tested back in the middle to end of July ( about 10 weeks after first sexual encounter)using a 8 panel STD test, everything came back negative expect HSV type 2. My result was equivocal rated at .95. I wanted to get retested at 8 weeks later using a Herpes type specific test for type 1 and 2, again my result for type 2 was equivocal now at .96.

 

What should I make of my results?

 

Thanks!

I'd re-test at the 4 month post end of relationship point.

 

Right now you are very borderline.... but many things can affect the test .... if you are below 3.5 with no symptoms at the time of the next test, I'd do the Western Blot test .. it's the Gold Standard of herpes testing.

 

Westover Heights Clinic,http://westoverheights.com/ (503) 226-6678 ... they can order the test for you through Quest Labs. It costs $5/minute for a consult … cheap IMO for clarity and/or peace of mind.
