much help needed please?


Question:
I'm not sure if I have an STD but want to get checked, can I get tested at a hosipital? and how much? will a blood test reveal anything if I have all of them at the same time?


thanks

Answers:
See if there is a planned parenthood around where you live, they will screen you for free and it is completely confidential. The only thing a blood test will determine is HIV, AIDS and Hepatitis C.
Hope this helps and hope the best for you. Good Luck!!

just get tested..nothing to be afraid of.
its free
just ask around at Kaiser or a near-by hospital..if they wanna charge u, just ask em where u can get it for free..
By all means go to a hospital or clinic asap. A swab of the "affected area" and a blood sample will allow the doctor to determine what you have, and how to treat it.
go to your local community health center. They do it for free. Or there is an std prevention site somewher i am sure. A blood test will reveal alot.
why don't u try going to your nearest county clinic?? usually they will help you right away. sometime stheyc an give it to you free depending on how much you make though. but.. if you tell them your concerns, I'm sure they will give u prompt attention.. Goodluck. hope everything is okay/.
You have to have several tests taken and see a gynecologist or urologist
yes you can go to a clinic, and usually you can get tested for free. They want you to get tested. Call your local Planned Parenthood and ask them if they do it there. If they dont they will know of a place that will. If they give you a place ask if its free. I am pretty sure you can always get tested for free
you can go to outpatient clinics..not the minute clinics they arent set up to handle such things..if you go to the hospital you'll go to the ER where you will be considered not a priority (compared to a heart attack) and may have to wait a period of time..best thing is to go to your own doctor..preferrably an OB/GYN

~~a blood test will tell much, but some STD's can only be diagnosed by physical examination. Check with your local health department, it will cost less to get checked out there. use caution when considering planned parenthood as they have multiple medical malpractice lawsuits agains them.~~
you sound really worried, or have you been with some sleaze bag that has given you cause to be this worried?
go to your doctor and explain what the problem is, your doctor isnt there to look down on u or to judge u, but to guide you in the right direction. Until you have seen the doctor or the hospital, please dont sit there and worry..everything will hopefully be ok
Good luck

Go to a Clinic or Health Department for help! Good luck
You don't need to go to a hospital to get tested, you can go to a doctor's clinic. Blood will be drawn and they can check all STDs at the same time. Hep B,HIV,Syphilis and etc.
