Overview of the Herpes Zoster (Varicella Zoster-VZV)-IgM Test
Varicella-Zoster virus (VZV) which is a herpes virus is the causative agent for two diseases: chickenpox (caused by varicella) and shingles (herpes zoster) which causes skin rashes. First infection with the VZV results in chicken pox. Once a person gets chicken pox, it doesn’t get contracted again. But the virus lives in an inactive state in your nervous system. When the VZV virus becomes active it causes shingles or herpes zoster disease. IgM antibodies are the first antibodies to form when a new infection occurs. These antibodies help in fighting against the infection.
