Almost all lancets are single-use and are impossible to be reused more than once due to safety mechanisms of the lancet's needle. However, even if you did reuse a lancet from an HIV infected person, you had no risk because a simple finger prick is not deep enough to be able to be a risk for HIV infection. You are fine and have no reason to test.
