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?

For an accurate HIV RNA PCR test result, it's typically recommended to wait at least 10-14 days after potential exposure. Since you tested 15 days after the incident, it should provide a fairly reliable result, but the accuracy improves with more time. For complete certainty, consult with your doctor.
