I recently discovered in the past 2 years that I have had undertreaded lyme disease for the past 16 years and is in fact "Chronic Lyme Disease" Of course me and my wife seen "Under Our Skin" and have read up online if it was sexually transmitted or not.
I tell you this everyone is is "SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED" we are living proof and insurance companies do try to hide test results. My wife did not care if she got Lyme disease or anything that I have because she loves me and says "If you got it I don't care I still want to have babies with you".
I made sure she was ok with that and showed her tons and tons of literature and the movie "under our skin" to make sure she still wanted to go through with it and she said "I know the consequences and we have been having sex way before we knew this so what does it matter now... if I have it or get it I do not care".
At first I refused to have sex with her without a condom then she demanded that I'd take it off or she would leave me. So i did. She got tested by her doctor almost every month this year and everything came back negative.
Then two weeks ago she realized that ever since me and her met each other her anxiety has been going through the roof, she has been getting mood swings and she never needed glasses before but in the beginning of the year her eyes started getting blurry and she needed to get glasses. I told her "when you go get your bloodwork this time tell your doctor that you want to pay for you bloodwork and to keep in out of the insurance companies hands". The doctor complied.
What do you know? Full blown lyme disease with bartonella. She has never been a person for the woods nor she hasn't been camping in over 15 years. I think we have discovered on our own that Lyme Disease and its Co-infections are definitely sexually transmitted. That would explain why my wife has had 4 miscarriages in the past year right?
I didn't know i had bartonella because i was never tested for that before but I don't really have to now because how else would my wife get it if she got lyme disease from me. If she got lyme disease from me im sure she got the bartonella from me also.
I hope this is a breakthrough for everyone and I hope everyone uses protection out there if they have lyme... no wonder its becoming an epidemic it is sexually transmitted!!! No wonder why people get rashes and some don't.r
I am about to tell my exgirlfriend who is the mother of my child because if she has it too then ultimately my daughter has it and my daugther is 3 and is having some developmental issues now and a social worker said she may be developing autism. We have an appointment with a psychoigist on Wednesday to determine this. I am scared to death for my daughter and I am going to get her tested. Feedback on this please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
