Is it possible for someone to have antibodies for HSV 1 (4.66 on an IgG) but zero for HSV 2 (with no outbreak/symptoms) and still have HSV 2?

Yes, although the HerpeSelect IgG test can apparently miss one in four cases of HSV1, but not HSV2, etc. Different antibodies are still produced in both cases, though. It's just a test kit issue.
