How do I get a blood test?!


Question:

How do I get a blood test?

I just moved to the US after getting married. My marriage was arranged, I barely knew him. It barely lasted two months. Two of my friends have suggested that from his behavior he might be gay. He certainly didn't have any interest in me. They think I should get myself tested just in case. How do I do this? Where do I go? What do I say? Do I need to go to a doctor or can I just go to a lab? What kind of test do I need?

What kind of doctor should I go to? Does it have to be a gynecologist?


Answers:

Make an appointment with a gynecologist OR go to your local health department (should be in your phonebook) and tell them you want to be tested for HIV and all the sexually transmitted diseases (STD's). They don't have to know why, but they may ask anyway. You also need a papsmear test (for cervical cancer) every year.

I'm sorry you had a bad experience here in America. I hope you find a nice guy soon.
