What does non-reactive mean?

What does it mean to have HSV IgM detected in my blood work?

  • I recently went for my yearly physical and asked for STD testing. I tested negative (nonreactive) for both HSV1 and HSV2, so i do not understand why this is 1:10 (high). The doctor says it may mean recent exposure. But i've never had any kind of sores. I also read this test also comes as a false positive often. Help!

  • Answer:

    Well in the early stages you would not have had sores yet. If your exposure is recent you most likely will have an outbreak sometime in the near future. Or it could be a false positive like you said.
