Helico bacter pylori is a bacterium called a spirochete.
Herpes I and II are lipid coated nucleic acid core diameter viruses.
Having one does not test positive for the other.

Yes, but only if you are infected by both HSV and H. pylori. There is no cross-sensitivity of the tests, thus if you test positive for both, it is because of a superimposed infection (although the HSV does not necessarily have to be active). Testing positive for Heliobactor pylori will not give you a positive HSV test.

no!!! the only way to test positive for herpes is: the doctor pricks the herpes blister, swabs the area and determines from that.
