I have interstitial cystitis and herpes, and I know for a fact that my cystitis started at the same time as my herpes. My sexual health consultant also agrees that this is one possible symptom if herpes. Of course herpes is not the cause of everyone's ic, but it will be for some.
As for the hysterical reaction of some people to the mere suggestion of a connection with herpes, saying it stigmatises those with ic, how much of a massive hypocrite are they? I presume they think herpes is something to be ashamed of because it is a sexually transmitted infection. That people have it are dirty or immoral or something. It is people with such small minded, judgemental, unintelligent attitudes that create stigma which is attached to medical conditions. So whilst you feel sorry for yourself and your own condition you think you have the right to stigmatize those with other conditions? How ridiculous.
Catching herpes is as easy as catching a cold. Anyone who has ever had sex, even with a condom, can catch it. So unless u are going to judge anyone who has ever had sex, I suggest u look at your opinions and see them for the offensive drivel that they are.

This is absurd!! I have had IC since I was 15 LONG before I ever was sexually active. There is NO medical evidence supporting this and you sould not post ignorant comments for new IC patients only to confuse them.
I have had interstital Cystitis since I was 15 LONG beofe I was sexually acitve. The is ZERO basis for this and NO medical evidence of this. this is probably as ridiculous as saying IC is a mental problem.
