My sister tests positive for Toxo. Found this when

she was pregnant. Had severe eclampsia. She had a

bad pap that required a total hysterectomy as soon

as term was over. Doc said she was not recently

infected and would always show positive.

Interestingly she had bacterial meningitis as a 2

yr. old. Children are healthy and gifted. I don't

know what type she is but I am RH-.
