Omgosh, my older sister says that maybe that is what caused my U.C. pan colitis/acute...in 1996 when I was pregnant with my daughter, my OBGYN told me that I had herpes in my throat (a tiny white fleck that brushed away with a toothbrush and never came back). I never had it any place else or ever again. But in 2002 I was diagnosed with U.C. and my older sister said that maybe me swallowing it (the herpes virus), it traveled to my stomach & colon and caused the U.C.?? What I think really caused it was my taking Sporanox, Lamisil & Diflucan daily for 2 years (alternating those meds) for a fungal nail infection I got in 1997 - warning DO NOT GO TO A NAIL SALON! My Mom always told me, and did I listen?
