my question dissapeared

[superworried]

I tried to find my previous question and your reply and it says pages not found, I want to ask my final question and below is your reply about 1 month ago.

1. The above test is negative but I am worried about the value of HSV II which is getting greater where my first test at 2 weeks is only 0.35 and my second test value at 6 weeks is 0.2 but my last test is 0.6, do you think this will affect my final test at 16 weeks that will become even greater or positive?

There is considerable variability between test results so I am not worried about your test result because it is still negative. This must be considered in light of your experience which was not a risk for acquiring herpes.

2. What are the chances of the result at 16 weeks, what is your opinion?, or have you ever seen a case that the result will become positif after 16 weeks although negative for 12 weeks.

I think the chances of a positive at 16 weeks are very small

3. How many percent is the result at 12 weeks?

A guess is that it is probably 90% accurate compared to 16 weeks

4. From your experience and my exposure , do you think i should test again at 16 weeks?

Yes, I don’t think you will relax until you do a 16 weeks test

5. As you know I have taken antibiotic for 1 month, do you think this will affect the test result?.

No, antibiotics will not effect your test results.

I have tested at 17 weeks and below is the results:
– HSV 1 IgG 0.38
– HSV II IgG 0.48

from the above result it should be negative and the HSV I & HSV II

And my final question is :

1. Is this result conclusive at 17 weeks?
2 Can I resume sex with my wife?

Thanks for your help during the past months.

I’m sorry about your post – it must have been more than 6 weeks ago as posts fall off after 6 weeks without activity.
Yes, these values are still negative. I would not expect your values to change after 17 weeks, no. If you are using a traditional screening test, it is 97% accurate for HSV 2 and I would say about 85% accurate for HSV 1.
