Do US (Texas) hospitals test for herpes in presurgery bloodwork?


Do US (Texas) hospitals test for herpes in presurgery bloodwork?

Testing for herpes is not standard prior to an operation. They usually just test your blood for a blood count (to make sure you're not anemic), platelets (to see that you are not at risk for bleeding) and electrolytes (sodium, pottasium), kidney function (BUN/ Creatinine) and glucose.No, they do not test for herpes at part of pre surgery testing in the US.
