Ok, I have heard that you can contract Lyme from not only the deer tick, but possibly from fleas, sandfleas, biting flies, other types of ticks, sexual transmission, and passed through pregnancy. Does anyone know of any truth to any of this?
I brought this up to my PCP when I originally went for Lyme testing and he said no way! I never asked my LLMD, though.
I would really be interested in reading up on any research that supports any of the above. Anyone have any comments to this? Thanks!!

use the SEARCH feature, found at the top under POST NEW TOPIC area.
type in - sexual transmission MEDICAL TOPIC LINE or text ANY DATE, but make sure "MY PROFILE" is edited to show ANY DATE there vs. 30 or 60 days of posts! leave membership no. blank & hit GO.
Do this for each subject you're interested in. It's been discussed over & over with LINKS galore to what you're looking for ok.
