Herpes and Behcet's corelation?

Herpes and Behcet's corelation?

January this year I had been diagnosed having Herpes simplex virus 1, my outbreak lasted for a week with genital sores and one in the upper lip. After that, there had been no attack or any major outbreak. Until recently, I had been diagnosed having Behcet's disease, my symptoms is my eyes particularly right eye being blurry. Other than that there is no other symptoms of pain or any discomfort. I had few genital sores 2 weeks ago.
When a fluid was extracted from my eye to see if there is any virus particularly Herpes virus attacking my eye it turned out to be negative.
However, I am wondering if Herpes has something to do with Behcet's.

Thanks in advance for insights.

Hi there, thanks for the response
My sores looks like cold sores, like small blisters.

behcet's  isn't related to herpes as far as they know.  If you had a lesion culture that was + for hsv1 from your genital lesions then you have hsv1 genitally.  Your oral symptoms sound like hsv1 too.  

Have you considered a 2nd opinion for the behcet's diagnosis to confirm it?
