 Question:
					 | 
					 | 
				 
				 |  
				
					| Dear Doc, I want to get all the tests done to see if my pipes are clean, i.e. if I have any STDs. But I've experimented with some drugs in the past. My question is: will the doctor/lab technician be able to tell that I've used drugs from looking at the results of the tests I've taken for the purposes of identifying STDs? Many thanks.

					| Thank you for your inquiry   The short answer is 'no' - unless a urine or blood sample is tested without your knowledge / consent for such substances (a completely different type of test than for STDs).
