Thanks for this. Are Quest and LabCorp IgG not looking for the same thing? An antibody to the HSV virus? I was wondering if for the initial result Elisa vs HerpeSelect is better? More accurate?
On many testing sites they say test for HSV at 4 – 6 weeks…so this is inaccurate?
Does taking valtrex or already having HSV1 have significant impact on antibody production? I tested at about 6 weeks out and will again in a few weeks
