    should also note the doctor didnt think it was herpes just a form of follicutis or clogged pore

      actually some blood test just show you have been exposed to the virus!

      but considering yours are negative i think its not herpes! 0

      hi, what does this mean specifically? The difference between exposed to it and being infected?

      like chicken pox.. some people have been exposed and never have the actual virus and their body has made antibodies against it!

      some people have false positives or false negatives when it comes to herpes bloods tests!

    Probably safe to say you don't have herpes. Try to relax, focus on other things and just live your life. If you start to get bumps that are sore and turn into painful ulcers then it's time to be concerned about it being herpes, typically.

    just went into my doctors and looked at the results it was a Igg blood test for hsv 1/2 and both came back negative ! id say its safe to say the irritation i feel down there is from shaving and i dont have herpes ! as he said this is one of the most accuarate blood tests especially with it being 10 months since ive had sex ✌
