A member asked:
Does high antibodies index level such as 24.60 on a igg test usually mean their high bc you been recently exposed and its new? or what does high antibodies mean, can you get it that high in 2 weeks or 3? or even a month? im hsv1 positive orally?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
IgG antibodies indicate long term exposure to either HSVI or HSV II. IgM antibodies are due to a recent outbreak of HSV I or HSV II exposure acquired sexually.
