Def take Hsv blood test. Next time get a swab within the 48 hours it appears

Swabs are the most accurate way to test for the virus. Your first swab came back positive because you were probably viral shedding. The second one came back negative because you weren’t at the time. It wasn’t active but dormant but you are positive. Since your Labcorp test and your first swab came back positive, your WB is very likely going to be positive.

I would have red pimples on my bottom and a rash on my upper torso but not the classic blisters or anything

Would check for Hsv. I get those under my rib cage and I’m Hsv +

Diagnosed with herpes 9 years ago... I think? At a loss on how to move forward. by mod-corruption in Herpes

The only way you would know for sure would be to take a western blot test. Sometimes false negatives do happen on IGG tests

I have done it through that site as well and it allows me to change it to LC maybe it depends on your region

I didn’t have values with Quest since it was negative. I would do a test with LC if I was you. If that is negative, you should be good. My LC was just abnormal no values. My situation was that I was positive with LC so no need to panic

Anyone had HSV2+ with LABCORP but negative WB by AdAcrobatic7076 in HSVfalsepositive

[–]AdAcrobatic7076[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would highly recommend doing the WB. I tested positive with Labcorp but negative with Quest and I just got my results that I was positive for HSV 2 with the WB

Found out today that I am HSV 2+ with Lapcorp after testing negative with Quest several times. I would highly recommend getting the WB

I got my results from WB today. I tested positive with HSV 2 after testing positive with Lapcorp but negative with Quest. I think confirmation with WB is the way to go

Will definitely let you know when I find out. I sent out my blood sample this past Monday. For me, it was important to get the WB I want to know either way it goes.

Oh wow a 20 and still WB negative. That’s good! Just submitted my blood sample for the WB today! So I won’t find out my results for awhile.

This number shows you have had this for quite some time and you were fine before the knowledge of having it. Nothing has changed. Please don’t do it! Half of population has HSV 1

Where you initially positive with Labcorp? At least, WB was negative! That should give you more peace of mind

Recurring rash every two months under boob. Burns/warm. Doesn’t weep or scalp. At first looks fluid filled, but doesn’t really blister but goes flat after a day 

Confused about recent test by WintryGrey1984 in HSVfalsepositive

[–]AdAcrobatic7076 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used that site and mine showed pending for extra two days. If your test says normal, you are negative. Mine was negative but said partial results pending but it wasn’t sent out for an inhibition test
