First, acomment about the numerical
results of HSV blood tests. Themportant thing in an automated ELISA

For reasons that have been described repeatedly on this forum, you can ignore the IgM antibody test results. See the threads linked below. Although apositive result may be accurate, when the result disagrees with IgG testing, IgG rules.
