Your Herpes Stories: Send Them To Me!
This is a big fat shout out for any herpes stories that you may want to share.
The first thing that I can do is share my story which you can find here at My Herpes Story. As many of you who read the blog on a regular basis know, I believe that the more we can support each other, the less we can make genital herpes allow us to feel afraid or ashamed. There is nothing shameful about having H!
You can share and receive support by sending me your sad stories. I receive way to many e-mails from readers who have contracted vaginal herpes from cheating husbands or boyfriends that they had trusted – sometimes for years! Also, comments and e-mails from women that did not even know they carried the virus and accidentally passed it on to partner that had trusted them. Everything happens for a reason (although sometimes I know this really sucks at the time..) and we can only do the best we can until we know better. Chances are if you are reading this blog, you already have herpes, but if you don’t or if you have friends or sisters, make sure they ask their health care professional to test them for HSV at every annual check up. They do not always routinely do this.
Good Herpes Stories?
I would also appreciate your happy stories. We don’t read enough on the Internet about awesome chicks living happily with H. It is possible. Tell me how you were scared and thought you would never have the strength to tell a future partner but somehow you found the courage and how it all worked out. I love stories about herpes and pregnancy as well. Too many women receive advice from their Doctors that a mandatory C-section is recommended. I don’t believe this to be true except in extreme circumstances. You can read all about that here at genital herpes and pregnancy.
So I am here – Get writing!

hi, my name is alex. i am 35 weeks pregnant and today i was told i might have a herpes outbreak…this came as a shock because ive never had an abnormal pap. i am terrified of what this means…i know it could be a lot worse and its not a death sentence but im more worried about the stigma that comes with the virus…my boyfriend is by my side and is telling me not to worry and to just wait for the results…but i might as well face it…my ob has probably seen this a thousand times…so the test will probably come back positive…this site has really calmed me down and made me feel a lot better about the possible outcome…please send me an email if you have an encouraging word or if you want to share some wisdom…thanks
