Hello,
According to the test results you were having contact with both infections Hsv2 and hsv1.
The Ig G shows that you had this infection in your life and the virus is In your body and may get activated at any time while in a low immunity state.
To check if you are having the infection you may test Ig M or you will have the symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
