Could this be a false positive chlamydia test? Please help
Hi, this is extremely embarrassing and heart breaking at the least.
I am 14 weeks pregnant and got a call today telling me I tested positive for chlamydia, I've never had it before, I have no symptoms and I've been 100% faithful to my boyfriend our entire year long relationship. And I truly believe he has been faithful to me as well.
At the beginning of our relationship he was undergoing a lot of testing, he was evidently not well - frequently peeing, discomfort, low sex drive, IBS symptoms that eventually led to his doctors giving him a prescription for IBS and an anxiety med. He was tested for chlamydia as well (his symptoms indicated it was possible) and they came back NEGATIVE. This was probably in July of last year (2016)
The symtpoms were gone, our sex life returned to normal (I got pregnant) and then his symptoms came back...the frequent peeing, discomfort etc. He went and got tests done AGAIN looking for some type of answer because it clearly wasn't anxiety alone and once again tested NEGATIVE when they suggested he do another STD test. That's TWO negative STD tests?
He only did this last test a week ago... the nurse who called me seemed so adamant he was cheating on me :( I truly believe he isn't. OTHER than it being a false positive I could only see him unknowingly contracting it before we got together, went to a doctor for help and received none then continued on with a normal sex life and passed it on to me... or maybe I had it...? The partner I had before I used a condom with and prior to that I was in a very, very long monogamous relationship. I have no symptoms and haven't for an entire year so it just seems doubtful to me. Anything is possible though.
We are with a midwife and it's a very intimate practice and I hate that she thinks he was unfaithful to me. I have never been with such a well raised, loving human and he has too much respect for me and women in general to cheat. I love him very much and I did not betray him either.
Can someone give me some insight? Does this sound like a possible false positive? Should I ask for a retest? My boyfriend went and got treated immediately because I freaked out on him, but I don't want to yet because I was told I couldn't do a retest after starting treatment.
Opinions?
