I have Rheumaatoid arthritis and my IgG is very positive as a result of the autoimmune disease. I was recently at my gynecologist because I had some infected hair follicles after shaving in my vaginal area, she took a blood test and a culture. The office then notified me that my culture was negative but my HSV2 IgG was positive. Could this possibly be a false positive due to my RA. I have been in a monogamous relationship for over 10 years. I have never before had any s/s of herpes.





Herpes virus can infect your body. Chicken pox is a form of this virus. So if you had chicken pox as a child. You have some form of herpes.
