Hi!
welcome to HCM!
Your report indicates C.M.V.IgG reactive and C.M.V.IgM non reactive that means C.M.V.IgG IS POSITIVE while C.M.V.IgM is negative .The presence of IgG antibodies but not IgM antibodies indicates a history of past exposure to the C.M.V.virus and indicates that the person tested that is you are immune to the C.M.V.miscarriage is not related to this.Similarly Herpes simplex Virus Type 1ab (IgG) Positive while Herpes simplex Virus Type 1ab (IgM) Negative.So you are immune to Herpes simplex too.
Take care!
