Although the risk of transmission from sexual activity is rare It couldn't hurt to get tested. If there has been any risky behavior, especially iv drug use then with out a doubt you should be tested.

I would get tested to assure yourself either way. I have been married twice and never used protection during sex and never transmitted the disease to either of my wives or my children in 30 years of having this disease.

Don't worry, but get tested anyway!
