Hsv1 hsv2. Help plz

Feliz.can i send u the pictures private plz

Which type are you positive for? The private messaging feature on this site does not support photos, I'm afraid.

it says anti hsv 1 & hsv2. Igg ab

Hsv1 positive

Hsv2 positive

Method immunoassay. But no numbers or name of test

I can send u a link?

Yes, links can be sent. It would be helpful if you could find out your numeric values, otherwise go to a clinic/lab that reports the values, not just the reference range interpretation.

Is it possible this is false 3 doctors say the redness is 90% sure not herpes???that its all in my head

It's possible that one positive is false, but unlikely both, and the one that is positive could well be oral, as the test cannot and does not confirm site of infection. What's going on with your penis could thus be all unrelated. But that is also just speculation. The numeric values would be helpful.

Well i been good do feel tingles in my lip alot . the feelings on my penis are not crazy they all started exactly when i was told i really do believe i been overthinking this my wife just had my daughter and this really has me distracted as a dad she got tested after me and was told her hsv1 is advanced that they believe she has hsv1 but her hsv2 came negative

I went due to the redness i been having for 6 months. Urologist said he couldnt see nothing bad that it was do to me beimg uncircumcised another doctor said he wasnt gonna do the test cuz he doesnt believe i have herpes the one that did it just did every test she can she didnt tell me she would do that test even she said it just looks like irritation

Hi feliz i dont know what to do but this stress is really killing me and i just got a positive for both. No numbers. I cant really continue like this can i just go straight for the westernblot i really went down hill with this news it messed me up mentally to the point i was gonna hurt myself my babygirl was just born my wife tested negative hsv2 positive hsv1 idk what to do

Do the western blot then, but only the one from the University of Washington is any good and it's not cheap or easy to arrange. You need to wait 4 months from exposure, if applicable. Or you can find a clinic/lab that reports IgG index values and retest, like I suggested.

It's possible you only have HSV1 (orally) and that this is causing a low false positive for HSV2. IgG index values would give a better idea, while the western blot should give a true diagnosis.

I really dont know what i would do if this is correct i hace had a risky life due to alot of partners in my past and just got this news after my daughter was born really been distracting me as a dad

But it might not be anything, or only HSV1, and even if it is HSV2, it's not as bad as it seems at first. You have a partner, a baby, and no symptoms -- it's not bad! Whatever you think has been bothering you for six months straight also isn't herpes, as herpes doesn't persist like that. You need to step back, think straight and prioritise.

You are really helping me

So much Right now as i havent been able to express my self with no1 my family supports me but talking over and over about this i feel as they are getting tired of me question do you have this or are u a counseler .?

I was 'gifted' gHSV2 by a #!?$@! whom I am happy to forget but never forgive, lol, and I was pretty devastated at first, but like you, I have others dependent on me, so I pulled myself together, got healthy, and now barely think about it. But I continue to help others on here, because there's a lot of false info out there and the tests are confusing to understand, even very misleading in some circumstances. So, I guess I've become an unofficial counsellor of sorts as well! Always happy to help those who want to be helped.

Well u really help alot thanks for your time hopefully i dont get you tired as well writing u here and there for questions ifeel like i cant accept it because i dont know Theres just this feeling that it might not be right even do to the redness and feelings i get in my penis i dont know but this has really bugged me out alot

Hi feliz i sent u the link of the pics
