1. Why would I test negative in 2019 but then test positive in 2023 when no new partners(been married 10
Years) and he has never been unfaithful. Would something like this stay dormant for over 13 years?
That is extremely unlikely. You need a test from a lab like LabCorp or quest and see what you get.
I have no idea where you are getting those very high numbers for test results of 30-100. That isn’t how these results come for HSV 2.
2. Should I have not done the supplemental IgG test today? Will it show me the same result since the first test was 5 weeks ago?
Supplemental test? Through which lab?
3. If the supplementary Igg blood test come back positive a 2nd time even with a low positive, should I request a western blot?
I don’t know if you can get the western blot through your doctor but you can try. There is a test out there called the immunoblot – it’s NOT the western blot. That is only done at the University of Washington. That’s the test you need.
