Re: Lyme Disease If you have had children after you had the transfusions which were most likely the origin of your own Lyme disease, then your children were definitely exposed during child birth, and they should also get Western Blot IgG & IgM Lyme tests done from IgGenix labs. The incidence of transmission is probably about 50% in utero and perinatal, but the actual rate in children of proved positive parents is higher than that, probably because of life-long exposure, and out-door life-style choices.
