Reply To: Herpes Testing Confusion

HI Terri,

I posted the above question a couple of days ago and did not get a response. I went and purchased additional questions assuming that may be why you did not respond. I really appreciate your help. At 9 weeks is there anything to be looking for? I did not have any lesions and I have been looking. Still dealing with stress and anxiety. Do you think I should do additional testing? You stated IGG may never be useful for me. I was negative a couple of years ago, do you think I will be neg again at some point? Or am I always going to have an issue? Not sure how the false positive thing works. I have read quite a bit about asymptomatic infection. Is this less likely when it is a true PRIMARY HSV infection? The WB came back neg for both. I talked to the people at the UW virology clinic and they said there would almost always be symptoms with a primary and it would almost always include lesions on the penis.

Thank you in advance.
