Yes, sorry. Sores. TONS! Across the midline, some on thighs, on the genitals, IN the genitals. I have never in my life had anything like that. Is HSV-1 5.08 considered high? Also, I had 2 negative Igg tests. For both 1/2 first week in April, AND last week in May. The only positive I have ever seen was the most recent with the reading of 5.08 ab 3 weeks after the outbreak, and of course a positive swab but they didn’t type it. Boyfriends Igg was super high I thought (33.20). Does that indicate he’s been infected for a long/longer time? He tested positive for HSV-1 prior to meeting me (had cold sores since he was a small child), but never had Igg ab test until I mentioned getting it. Yeah, I don’t understand this at all. I’m wondering if he could’ve given it to himself down there from an oral sore he touched, and then touched his genital area OR could he have had another woman pass it from his mouth to his genitals? Also, I would imagine an infected woman could’ve given him oral sex as well at some point. But yes, I’ve never had any of the symptoms I had in May EVER before. I even got lymph node swelling. So for this to not have come from him, SOMEHOW I got the same virus type he has had for years, from someone else and never had any symptoms until this freak time in May when we had more unprotected sex. 🙁
