How wonderful!! I had a colonoscopy at Digestive Health in Nov 07, so should I demand I be tested for all these diseases, at their expense?

I think that any medical facility that uses unsafe practices of re-using syringes or needles should be completely shut down and loose their license to practice plus being heavely fined.
