As you can imagine, I was very anxious to get to the bottom of whether I was positive/negative for Type 2 and a further
urine and swab
test was conducted by the
lab a month later and reported as negative. Also, the lab as they had made a mistake with the reporting of the earlier test, agreed to run igm and igg blood tests for me. This came out positive for HSV1 - no surprises there, have had many cold sores, and negative for HSV2. The IGM test came out negative for both IGG and IGM.
