    Hello

     

    Just wondering if your husband was tested as well recently.

     

    Anything is possible.  I am going to give you some information first about chlamydia which may read here.

     

    And here is some information about the misdiagnosis of chlamydia here.

     

    Lastly...here is a forum where it appears that the individual who began the thread had been misdiagnosed.

     

    Hope this helps some.  Good luck to you.

    True it's important that you both get tested and treated. Many times especially in men the symptoms of chlamydia can be non exisitent and you'll just pass it back and forth to each other.

    Hi--thanks for your message--I probably should have posted after I was retested the day after I recieved the diagnosis before taking any medication and my husband was tested as well that day. We were both negative so we are proof that lab errors occur and everyone should always get a retest for anything they are diagnosed with.

    Hi there!

     

    Isn't that something?  I am so glad you wrote back to tell us about this...it might help someone else who is in this situation to know that these mistakes happen.

     

    Thank you for sharing your experience.
