He told you to trust him. So did I. I would trust him if I were you. EWH
Dear Doc,
Thanks for your valuable response! I got the contact details of the phlembotomist from the path lab and smsed him my query regarding the newness of the needle set used on me for blood draw to which he replied QUOTE please trust me sir and dont worry it was a new sealed pack ENQUOTE
Shoud I trust him on this?
Welcome to our Forum. We regaularly get questions of this sort. the bottom line is that there is no risk for getting HIV through having your blood drawn. It would have been better, as a rule, for him to have taken his used material with him but leaving it did not put you at risk. It might have put the peole who handle your office garbage at risk for a needlestick. In answer to your specific questions:
1. No. Simpley not a realistic possiblity.
2. Please move on.
3. There is no reason to worry about sexual contact with your wife realted to this contact. There is no risk.
