A member asked:
If my swabs are negative for chlamydia (all 3 locations) are negative, do i definitely not have lgv?

Lymphogranuloma Venereum (LGV) is not chlamydia, and has entirely different clinical effects. Get a referral to an infectious disease physician to determine accurately what is going on clinically.

In all medical probability- yes. But every test can have false positive and false neg.
