A member asked:

What can happen if herpes hsv2 go untreated in a 7 year old child. doctors keep saying test are neg can it be a misdiagnose......

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Herpes 2: If multiple tests are negative, the negative predictive value of multiple tests is very reassuring that there is NO misdiagnosis. A seven year old having a herpes 2 infection is rather rare by itself also, so your fears of this can mostly be put to rest
