Reply To: HSV2 or something else?

Terri, I’m sorry, I thought of another question. I’ve been on daily acyclovir for about 6 months. Will this interfere with an HSV2 swab test or IGG test? I also read somewhere that acyclovir could even cause a false positive?

I am going to do a western blot soon, and if so, should I quit taking acyclovir to get an accurate test? If so, for how long?

I really appreciate all you do, thank you!
