A member asked:

Diagnosed with herpes in 5/2012. i got the igg test done 5 months later 10/2012. it came back negative. what does this mean? is there a better test?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not really: There is no benefit to testing again. Usually we just treat when symptoms flare since herpes is a viral infection.
