Brief Answer:
Past HSV infection.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome To HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney.
I understand your concern.
Your report is suggestive of Past Herpes Simplex Virus type 1 infection. IgG stands for past infection and IgM stands for recent infection.
Since your IgG is positive and IgM is negative it means you had Herpes Simplex Virus type 1 infection in past.
Nothing to worry.
If you have any further query please ask me.
