Question

I recently got my blood test results back for HSV 1 and 2, both IGM and IGG serum. The report says HSV 1 and 2 IGM is 0.65 and HSV 1 and 2 IGG is 16.10 CLIA. I'm kind of worried and not sure what these numbers mean. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I've recently had a VDRL test and it came back reactive. I also went through a VDRL in Dilation test and that was reactive too. From what I've read, this might mean syphilis. What should I do next in terms of treatment? I've attached my report for you to see. Can you help guide me on what steps I should take?

Hey, I had a question about Rabipur injections. So basically, I got 5 shots of it around 14 years ago. I'm wondering if I need to get a booster dose now, and if it's something that lasts for life. Also, how many doses are we usually supposed to get anyway? Appreciate any advice!
