I’m a little confused by your test results, the second time you put them in. Are you positive for HSV 1 or HSV 2 or both? Tight clothing should not be causing sores. If you want to know if you really have HSV 2, the herpes western blot is the best test you can get. Remember, your medical records are, by law, your property and you have an explicit right to them. If I were you, I would obtain an exact copy of the lab tests that were done.
BTW herpes would not cause you to be symptomatic for 7 months straight – it’s not like that.
