A member asked:

Found out i have slightly elevated herpes antibodies, could it be a fluke and i don't have herpes virus 2?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Mild Disease: 22% of adult americans from all backgrounds, income levels and ethnic groups have hsv-2.The disease is so mild that two third of the infected people dont even know they have it. You did not say what antibodies were positive igg or igm, igm antibodies mean acute infection and igg means past infection with the virus discuss the results in detail with your doctor who ordered the test, you may need no rx.
