Herpes result
I received iGG and iGM testing for HSV1 and 2. The igg results are: HSV1 0.10 (negative) hsv2 0.13 (negative). The iGM results are: HSV1 <1:10 (negative) and hsv2 1:10 (equivocal). Should I be worried at all? What are the chances that an equivocal iGM screen for hsv2 means I have herpes if the igg came back negative?
