/ EXPOSURE TO HEP C POSITIVE PT May 15, 2011 I was taking a Blood sugar level when blood flicked onto my face from a patient that is HEP C positive. I did not feel hit my eyes and washed my face immediatley and rinsed my eyes with Normal Saline. My health care organisation said that there was not point in doing a blood test as it was very unlikely that I had been exposed. I am very worried (would you feel the blood flick into your eyes) What should I do ?? |

 I agree that this is a very low risk and would not recommend testing. | ||||||||
