Question 2
The young woman comes to the free clinic for the complaint of stomach cramps. During the examination, the nurse recommends that she be tested for chlamydia.

a.
Well, if you get more symptoms come back for testing.
b.
The doctor may have to order medicine for syphilis and chlamydia. You probably have that too. You need to be tested today
c.
Testing is not mandatory...I probably wouldn't bother either since you have no symptoms.
