Genital herpes test came back with value of 0.38. does that mean i have genital herpes. ?

Negative, no herpes: With the usual blood tests for the viruses that cause genital herpes (HSV2, sometimes HSV1), anything below 0.9 is definitely negative. If you remain uncertain about it, discuss with the doctor's office or the lab where the test was done.
