1) Can mono influence antibody results? Is that why my values were so high at the time? And why I might be having positive results still?
We don’t know what gives false positives on the IgG test. How many sex partners had you had by that time in your life?
2) Did the symptoms I mention align with herpes 2?
Perhaps, yes
3) Based on the values, should I get the western blot? Do you think I am still positive?
It’s so hard to say honestly. Most 19 year olds don’t have HSV 2, which is kind of what is throwing me. If you have any question, get the blot and we have a terrific place in LA to get the bloods drawn for the blot, test
