Noempie's interview
How did all start?
It started with itching and burning and at first I thought it was a normal infection.
Do you already have a diagnosis? How long did it take you to get it?
Yes. It took about a week to get a diagnosis.
For what medical specialties have you been treated? What has been the most useful specialty for your?
I do not understand the question.
What has been the most useful thing for you so far?
I use creams and ointment that my docter subscribed.
What have been your biggest difficulties?
Having a normal sex life and sometimes when an outbreak occur.
How has your social and family environment reacted? Have your social or family relationships changed?
To those I told, nothing changed because they do not really understand what it is about. I have not told a lot of family or friends.
What things have you stopped doing?
Nothing
What do you think about the future?
I am afraid that the older I get that it will get worse.
So far, which years have been the best years in your life? What have you done during them?
All of my years. I try not to think to much about this illness.
If you had to describe your life in a sentence, what would it be?
My life is fine.
Finally, what advice would you give to a person in a similar situation?
Just to stay positive as it is not a discease like cancer and we are not going to die from it.
