Reply To: False Positive HSV2?

[ReallyNeedHelp]

I want to mention I did have yeast infection a little frequent after I got pregnant Nov 2022 of last year due to body changes it was the first time for me, I’m guessing the yeast infection gave me jock itch cause it’s fungus it was just flaky itchy and chafing, it gave me friction cus I was wearing tight underwear too but I didn’t know that for months until the end of June they told me it was Jock itch ..

& I did have bv once after I last had sex in May, To add I do have HSV 1 ( no outbreak) but that was a higher number could that make a cross reactivity? & I have positive ANA for rheumatoid etc , not sure which one I have but I was told that can trigger a false positive test too

Since May 30 was the last time unprotected, sept 29 would make 120-121 days since the last time I went to retest for the igg… What are the chances this can be false positive if it was at 1.45 after 120 days on Sept 29?

I’m guessing from May 30 til July 30 , when it was at 1.09 it was 58 days ? But I don’t think I have herpes at all , this test is scaring me and other doctors make me feel like there’s no chance of being negative. they say you can have herpes and not get symptoms but I don’t think I have it at all, I know my body & they making me feel like I have it when I don’t think I do ,I shaved when it wasn’t fully gone I was just sweaty , & fungus & sweat don’t mix , so when I shaved the follicle was a little red but not sores red, more like irritated hair follicle with a dot of hair in the middle of it, I do have eczema too , but it was no puss ,no bumps, no pain nothing and haven’t had it since I cleared the jock itch a while back now.

It would be 169 days from May 30 to Nov 16 now , and I haven’t experienced anything , I thought the last igg I took was the confirmation test at that time , so I haven’t went this month , idk if the stress is causing my nerves to go all over ? but other than that I’ve been fine so I’m confused please help I need your opinion
