Hello, I'm fairly new to this site and this is my first post. I was diagnosed with genital herpes back in December and for the past twenty weeks I have been experiencing constant genital numbness and some constipation. Symptoms are not getting better unfortunately. This is driving me crazy to say the least. It's even more frustrating that all the doctors I've seen can't tell me anything, I can't find legitimate sources of information on it, nor can I establish communication with anyone who has been through this. I'd like to talk to someone who has been through this. It's bad enough dealing with the diagnosis itself, but then I get the weird symptoms too! Absolutely a horrendous experience. I know that posting this for everyone to see can be a double edged sword but I'm willing to do it to see if maybe one person has been through this and can share their story with me. Thanks and I'm thankful for forums like these where we can all share stories and give support. Boy I never thought herpes could be such a nightmare for some of us. If only we could turn back time!
