My doctor put suspected hiv contact on my chart for no reason. I told her I’m monogamous and always use protection for my sexual health and she put a full std test on my bloodwork for no reason without asking.

I go to a doctor whose practice caters to lgbtq patients and no matter what I go in for they want to focus on std testing 🙄

Yeah I went in once for a problem with my ear, she asked what my sexuality was and as soon as I said bisexual she told me I was at high risk for hiv. Ive been in the same monogamous relationship for two years 😭😭

have you ever gotten tested before? because even if you’re being safe getting tested is always a good thing

I wouldn’t mind the test if she asked and didn’t put suspected hiv contact for no reason

Sometimes they have to format it like that for insurance purposes

I’ve had the opposite happen. There’s this one nurse who doesn’t even ask if I drink or smoke. I haven’t been to the doctor since I turned 21. But whenever I went and she was entering stuff into my chart, she would just rattle off stuff while typing and one of them would be ‘You don’t drink or smoke’. I think maybe she was expecting me to correct her if it was wrong but I always wondered why she just assumed.
