How is it I get tested and come up positive for Trich but my husband goes in today and doesn't have it.

Hello Anon

Thank you for writing.

You may not have passed this infection onto your husband. Did you see his results in writing? If so, then you may have had it dormant in your system for a long time. Often when our immune system is low, viruses and infections show symptoms even if they have been dormant for years.
Best,
Susan
