If i got checked for herpes and it was positive is there a chance they could be wrong?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Herpes: Nope. It is not likely. But, if you provide the tests and the exact results i can give you a better idea if it could be wrong. There would be two types of herpes, type one and type two. And then there is the igm and the igg antibodies.
