Terri,

I was curious why the WB is not FDA approved and with all the issues with the IGG, why doesn’t the industry just switch?

Have you ever seen a false negative on the WB?

Is the WB just as accurate for HSV1 as it is HSV2?

I read somewhere that if you tested false positive on the IGG you likely always will due to the protein. In my case above does it make sense that my CVS tests were negative for a while, then showed HSV2 issues, and then my IGG later on showed HSV1 positive but neg for HSV2?
