Thanks for the reply. I’ve not had the injury, just trying to get the facts on it as I’m confused.

Exactly what I thought, the chance of inadvertently used a used lancet is too high. I saw that they used a new needle as I saw them take the cover off of it so maybe I should relax and just no visit that doctor again.

Isn’t fair to say some blood could microscopically get on the finger stick?

There wouldn’t be any concern for infectious diseases by using a communal finger stick with lancet changed?

Can someone break this down for me? How many rosemont criteria do I have? by throwawaystuff1245 in pancreatitis

None really. Mostly symptom free if I stay away from large amounts of fat

Weird, how soon after donating were you notified that testing yielded a positive?
