What Are The Signs And Symptoms Of Herpes Simplex?
Brief Answer:
Yes, you do have HSV, but most probably from past exposure
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to HCM.
Thank you for writing to us.
I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help. Your report indicates that you have in fact got HSV from past exposure. The IgM value is raised during an active acute phase of the infection and it being equivocal here indicates no active/acute infection; whereas IgG is raised, indicating a past infection.
I hope I have explained things in a manner best understood by you.
Please do not hesitate to write back to me for any further clarifications, I am always here to help.
Best wishes.

Brief Answer:
Yes, it is most probably from previous exposure and not the recent one
Detailed Answer:
Hello once again.
The high IgG would have been from an older exposure as I've mentioned in my previous response. It is indeed from past exposure and not the more recent one.
An IgG like yours is most probably from a past infection, and is not likely due to the more recent exposure.
