We were, thats why he didn't have to pay for hep tests, she said as it's been there for so long we wouldn't need the test for him

Perhaps you should have told your docs then and saved yourself a few bucks

Obviously not, but somebody might read this thread and enquire about it when they go for their meds and common sense will prevail.

Don't go worrying about your meds. I did and it was for nothing at all.

All they do is ask you to give a urine sample (which she later tested for sugar/diabetes etc., fill a form in (ask a few questions) take your blood pressure, height, weight. Then i had to lay on the bed and strip to my boxers whilst the doctor had a prod around (no rubber gloves needed ), then the doctor took a blood sample to test for HIV and finally it was a reflex test when they hit just below the knee with a hammerish thing (not too hard though).. Apart from that it was the chest X-rays.

Well thats what i went through anyway, otheres may tell you different. But i wouldn't worry

I wasnt even asked to strip to my boxers, Doc asked me if there were any lumps or bumps he should be aware of down there . I said 'No' and he said that was fine, like others did the reflex test, looked at my ears and nose did an eye and hearing test, and that was about it..

Of course, i forgot the eye test and the looking into the ears, she also looked into my mouth aswell, but that is definately all

Still here! I am just putting the finishing touches to the statement and trying to thin out the 'evidence'!! Martial arts instructor has a statement saying we've been hitting each other on a regular basis for the last 3 years!!
