Hey guys, im still waiting on a second western blot (first one was indeterminate) but was wondering if we could get a little thread going about IGG levels over time. For 6 months (never been tested for hsv prior) I’ve tested three times at just about the same level 2.1-2.5 or so. im just wondering if people’s IGGs have stayed relatively the same over time. Obviously results can fluctuate from time to time but I’m wondering more about relative stability in levels or people seeing big increases or (I suppose it’s possible?) decreases. Hoping to get some responses more just out of curiosity than anything else. (Sorry if this is a noob move)

So I have been diagnosed with Ghsv 1 and I was wondering far as sex goes should I use condoms for now on ? I know I shouldn’t have sex during any breakout of course. But after everything heals (far as breakouts) will I still need a condom ? Can I still receive oral or what? I tried looking up things online far as Ghsv 1 goes but didn’t get the answers I was looking for.

So I have just been diagnosed with Ghsv1 and I’m curious far as sex and oral goes can I still perform these actions after my OB Heals? If I use a condom is there still a risk of passing on this virus? I need help lol
