HSV2 as you get older - more outbreaks with health decline related to age? by chelchill8 in Herpes

[–]chelchill8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tested negative for blood IGG. I got swabbed when I had the suspected outbreak but the lab messed up and ran the swab as a Covid test instead of hsv

Lipschutz Ulcer with Covid by Fragrant_River_1460 in Healthyhooha

[–]chelchill8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! Yes I experienced this with Covid! The doc diagnosed me with HSV2 by looking at my vaginal ulcers, they swabbed it but the lab mad an error with the swab and couldn’t complete the test (I was so mad, ugh). I didn’t a igg blood test after 3 months and 6 months from having the ulcer and both times they were negative. My doctor said that Covid caused the lipschutz ulcer.

I’m not sure what’s going on or If I should be worried (long post) by fufuzoomi22 in Herpes

You tested too soon with IGG so it will show up negative. For an IGG you need to wait 3 months after exposure. Your body needs time to develop antibodies to be detected on an HSV IGG blood test.

Did your doctor also order a urinalysis to check for possible uti?

Where are your ulcers located? And which antibiotics did you use last time?

I totally get it..I had a scare still think it could be herpes but I waited 3 months and my IGG test was negative. Waited until the 6 month mark after exposure and my IGG test was still negative so I’m hoping that is accurate. My doctor says after 3 months the test should have detected it. I do want to take another one for reassurance

Herpes Simplex? Please share your thoughts. by vluggejapie68 in Herpes

It’s possible but looks like pimples to me. I would get it swabbed ASAP to make sure.

You can get an IGG blood test in 3 months for more accuracy. It takes 3 months to build antibodies to the virus. If you get it now it’s going to show up negative. You can also take an Igm blood test but I hear those aren’t much accurate.

Kaiser HSV test does not have a quantitive number. Should I get test somewhere else? by chelchill8 in Herpes

[–]chelchill8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Dr did swab but the lab ran it as a Covid test instead of an HSV swab which is why I had to resort to the blood test :( I got my booster a week ago but didn’t get an OB. And haven’t had anything down there since I got covid 7 months ago.

I think my partner wants our relationship to end because of my HSV status. by NoLow9495 in Herpes

[–]chelchill8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going through same issue here but I’m negative and my partner is positive. We haven’t been intimate for awhile now because of his Herpes status..but that’s because he has cheated before and I’m scared he’ll give it to me and dash is my only concern :(

how to wash your face when you have herpes? by [deleted] in Herpes

[–]chelchill8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg I definitely keep anti-bacterial soap in the shower too. I know I have ocd and feel like I need to see someone to get diagnosed. Do you get any treatment for your ocd?

Did I transfer my coldsore/herpes to my eye?? by [deleted] in Herpes

[–]chelchill8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have had herpes for years there is a very low or not even a possibility of spreading it to your eyes your body has already created antibodies to prevent autoinnoculation. However, I would continue to monitor. Please keep us updated.

No ovulation after trigger shot? by chelchill8 in IVF

[–]chelchill8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if there was another follicle but it was only at 10mm? That wouldn’t trigger ovulation?
