Hello all, just wanted some input. I’ve recently been diagnosed with HSV 2 with an IgG level of 1.4. So many emotions. (Devastated to say the least) I tested at 12 day’s post potential exposure. Is that too soon? I did have unprotected sex with another partner 6 weeks & 2 days prior to this test as well. Do you believe this positive is from that previous encounter or the encounter that was 12 days prior? I know places that won’t even test if it hasn’t been at least 4 weeks. The person from the 12 day encounter is supposed to go get tested as well but has not updated me on that. And I have not notified the person of the previous due to not sleeping with them after the second person. Opinions? They are appreciated & thank you in advance. Also, they sent me to another lab to have another level drawn to rule out a “false positive.” Will let you all know how that goes. I’m expecting it to still be positive. After the antibodies ARE there.

No, no history of hsv1. (As far as I know, at least) both igG came back negative for HSV1. However, my igG did increase over a 4 day period from 1.400 to 1.59. Still waiting on the person from the second encounter to get tested. His partner tested negative for HSV 2 but had a 4.66 for HSV1 on the IGG. So I am wondering if it is too soon for me to test positive for HSV1? Like I said I did this test 6 weeks after the first person & 12 days after the second. Leading me to believe that I contracted HSV2 from the first person as the partner of the second person tested negative for HSv 2 & has been with him since May. Surely she’d test positive by now. It’s a messy story, I know.
