Tested 10 days after possible infection

[Sooomanyquestions]

So I was tested 10 days after a possible infection. I got the Igg test and had .09 hsv1 and 2 antibodies. Does that mean I have at least been exposed? Also, I did have a minor outbreak but no pain or itching or anything. The out break started with what I thought was a bug bite. Then, almost 10 days later, a few other bumps popped up right after a work out. It's going away and I haven't worked out since until yesterday. Now I have another bump popping up. Any ideas on what's going on? I know I need to get tested in a couple of months but I'm gonna be super anxious until then so I'll probably be asking a lot of questions.

 

Also, I do have a swollen lymph node in my groin.

No, those numbers do not indicate an infection. Almost no one will have numbers literally at 0. You should wait a few weeks and then test again. Your symptoms do sound quite a bit like hsv.

Your symptoms do sound like HSV. If you can get in to see a doctor soon, see if they can swab a bump for testing. That will give you an answer sooner than waiting for another IgG.

 

Sorry to hear! Keep checking this forum. It's been a great resource for me.
