I had an hsv1 tear done which was negative and 3 months later had the breakout. is this possible. i had tingling about a year. how can it be negative though i had symptoms ?

HSV test?: If meaning an HSV test (not a tear), there are different kinds of tests, and all tests can have false negative or false positive results. Also, HSV symptoms can overlap with symptoms of other medical conditions. That means having HSV symptoms doesn't always mean having an HSV infection. Likewise, having an HSV infection doesn't always create HSV symptoms. That's why a doctor's expertise is needed.
