Worried, is it still ok to be internal with your partner if you have morgellons?

Meant to say intermate....oops

I can definately understand that. The thing is before I was diagnosed couple of weeks ago, we have been intimate. It makes me wonder if I may have done that. He works with chemicals so his body dosent seem to notice anything. I've asked him if he's feeling anything that I am with his body etc, he says no. All I want to do is cuddle and kiss him but my minds frayed, i reckon fear has taken over some rational thoughts. I just really needed to know what, how, if other people cope with the matter of intimacy. Finding it very difficult to know how to react to some situations, dramatic change of life, normality. .. everyone on the forum dealing with daily life not just me alone. I will mention protection to my husband its gotta be done. I was thinking about it, but needed other people's opinion. Thanks Girlie.

Girlie yeah your right in all that you say, I can see that, what's dones done if at all. Here's hoping he hasn't. If he says he's not gotten any symtoms then fare enough. I just cannot see him wanting to go to be tested. His right but can be stubborn at times. But I shall not rock the boat. He's a very active, pretty fit person for his age, very rarely gets ill.

Not contagious like a cold or flu - no
But passed on sexually - I believe it’s likely. Many llmd’s feel it is.

It’s a spirochete - just like syphillis is -I don’t think it’s far fetched to think it would be transferred during sexual activity.

But contagious - ie sneezing and coughing - I don’t think so.

there's no doubt its passed sexually lyme is a spirochete similar to syphilis why wouldn't it pass sexually?

i gave lyme and almost positive bartonella to my wife sexually. we both appear to have the same highly resistant bart strain given the difficulty with treating it.

Astronomer I agree with you there I've only recently been diagnosed with morgellons. I'm learning from these good people as I go along. It's mind blowing..... it's so bazaar having to think and behave a different way with your partner. I can understand being intermate but had never thought of the kissing bit. I guess its back to basics.
