Normally, if a person is having a true first outbreak, he will not have any antibody for a while. A positive swab test and a negative antibody test for the same type indicates first infection. An outbreak is NOT a confirmation of the presence of antibody, no. Yes antibodies can appear after an outbreak.
If you are still worried about this, how about if you take a western blot and allow that to be the final opinion on whether you are infected or not?
