Reply To: Negative IgG and IgM Blood Test, Visible Symptoms – Recent Infection?

[Anon1923]

Teri, thank you for your prompt reply — I’ll make sure to request typing and notify the doctor of my antiviral use.

I requested the IgG lab results from the testing site and received the following:

HSV-1 <.1
HSV-2 .14

Given that the HSV-1 count is lower compared to the HSV-2 count, do you think it is likely that I have HSV-2? We did have brief frottage during our sexual encounters but never actual unprotected PIV. It might be important to note that I also had one encounter with a different partner on Sept. 29th in which he removed the condom briefly and inserted himself (30 seconds) without my knowledge.

Also, if I have HSV-2, does this mean I can never receive oral sex from an uninfected partner? 🙁

Thanks in advance for your help!
