getting tested
04/07/00 01:01 AM

i am an at risk teen, and i am nervous about getting tested (even though i know i should). i was wondering if anyone could tell me what exactly is involved with getting tested, and where is the best place to get a test. i am most concerned about my parents finding out, and i was wondering if whoever does the test would tell my parents if i were to test +...im moving out in about three months, but dont want to wait that long, and i'm under 18, so would the doctor have any obligation to tell my parents? any info would help, thanks
