    Don't worry! I'm pretty sure most people are + to toxoplasmosis. It's actually more of a worry to be - if you're pregnant, because getting it in pregnancy can be dangerous for the baby. I believe you can pick it up by being exposed to cats, more particularly their poo. So if you've had a cat and cleaned it's litter try, chances are you've already picked up toxoplasmosis. Hope that eases your worries a bit

    Like PZ said, it's good to already be positive! That means you can't get it while preg and pass it onto baby. Relax, everything is perfect

    oh thank god for your replies !!!

    thanks sooooooo much PumpkinZulu and Kitfaerie!!! you have really helped put my mind at ease. I will be seeing a new doctor in about 3 weeks (we are moving) so I guess I can wait til then to ask questions. I cant imagine my doctor here would have put me at any risk. He is a very good doctor.

    phew....I can get back to breathing again.
