HSV titters: Your igg levels indicate past infection only. It could be from 6 months ago to 30-40 years ago. Igm titters on the other hand indicate current/very recent infection. Hsv1 is the viral infection normally associated with fever blisters/cold sores - not genital contact. Hsv2 is the type associated with sex. You are both negative for that one...Which neither proves or refutes marital fidelity.
