Oooooh doctor's office... clearly you do not know who you're messing with.
Last summer I had some drama with my doctor's office because, no matter how many times I told them to only call my cell phone and to under no circumstances call my parents' house, they kept calling the parents with test results, etc (refer to this entry for history). That battle ended with a long call to the office manager, who apologized and assured me that my parents' number would never be called again. I even went into the office and filled out new patient information forms just be sure they wouldn't make the mistake again.
Anyway, I went in for my annual check last Friday (the one where I got the lecture I wrote about a couple entires ago) and obviously got tested for everything while I was there. Today, my mom called me to let me know that the office LEFT A MESSAGE ON THEIR ANSWERING MACHINE letting me know that my tests were all normal and to call if I had questions. WTF mate?! The office must be fucking retarded. I mean, if the HIPAA laws are so strict that my mom had to sign something agreeing to never leave her laptop in her car, surely a doctor's office who calls a 19-year-old patient's parents with the results of her STD tests is asking for major trouble.
Oh well... at least my parents know I have sex so they weren't shocked by the call. And at least the tests were all negative.
