Can Chlamydia Be Transmitted Through Alternative Modes Other Than Sex?

I have Chlamydia and I have only been with one man in six years. In October 2005 I was tested for all STDS and I was negative on all accounts. My spouse swears he was not with anyone. Is there any other way this disease can be transmitted? I think I have had symptoms for about a year but did not know it. Just recently I have become very sick so that's why I got tested. Is it possible it was transmitted without sex.
