So as you have expected I just received my 10.5 week results and they were negative as well, which is quite a relief. I have been slowly trying to return back to my regular life style which is getting easier as time passes and this negative result truly helps.
1. I am assuming that at about 10.5 weeks the igg HSV 2 type specific test done at labcorp is around 90% accurate? Maybe more accurate?
2. Additionally the fact that I am still negative and not equivical or a low positive is even more support, correct?
3. I have read that individuals that don’t have HSV 1 go through seconversion earlier if they contract HSV 2. So the fact that I never had a cold sore and not positive HSV 1 tests only make it more likely that my results are a true negative, correct?
4.I am gonna try and stop my obsession on me contracting herpes. You have been a real help,thank you again. I may take one last test in a month or so but I feel like I can live with less stress than before.
