This was very surprising to me because my previous partner has tested negative for both, as has my current partner.  When I was 12 I had a shingles (herpes zoster) outbreak.Is there a possibility my positive result for HSV-2 may have been caused by my previous shingles outbreak? Many thanks.   http://www.healthcentral.com/genital-herpes/c/22633/18152/hsv2-past
