Happy to hear your tests came back negative. 3 months is definetly conclusive. Some say that 16 weeks is better, however your ratios would have shown a slow rise. From what I understand your results dont give ratios only negative or positive. In that case, some like to go & do a follow up test at 6 months just to re- confirm. The IGG Elisa blood test is the most accurate ( besides swabbing ) and also provide ratios.

Okay so I have another question, let's say I did have herpes and touched the sore and put my finger in my anus can I transfer the herpes inside the anus where you can't see it? (Only stuck my finger in there because it gets itchy sometimes) ever since then I've been have pain there and irregular bowel movements and diarrhea a lot. I heard herpes only show out side

It is possible, some men have pain urinating due to sores inside the urethra. So inside the rectum could be possible. I would start by taking a hot bath and make sure you clean that area regularly, daily. If the problems persist, visit a Doctor in case it's something else.
