What is the Varicella Zoster IgM (VZV IgM) Test?

The Varicella-Zoster Virus (VZV) IgM Antibodies (Chicken Pox) test detects varicella-zoster IgM antibodies (VZV). First-time exposure to VZV produces chickenpox; second-time exposure causes shingles. IgM antibodies indicate an infection. As the first antibodies produced by the body in response to VZV infection, they aid in early detection.

A negative IgM test doesn't rule out infection because the sample was taken before antibodies appeared if symptoms continue, re-test in 2-3 weeks.

Why done? 

The test detects if a person has been exposed to the Varicella zoster virus, which causes chicken pox and herpes zoster. It helps find the infection early and treat it.

Procedure

You'll have blood extracted from an arm vein.

How does one prepare for the test?
