medical issue...do i need to mention???
HI i was a dental nurse and had a needle stick injury and as precaution i decided to take anti hiv tablets in case the patient was infected.
The patient has advised he did not have hiv or any virus but i took this measure as precaution only.. do you think i would need to mention this on the medical?
Does anyone think this might mean i fail the medical as i maybe a risk ?
Any views would be appreciated
