Glucometer test
I just used a Glucometer pen stick that someone else in my family uses. I just realized that it probably was not a great idea due to the spread of bodily fluids. I used a new lancet and alcohol wiped the pen, but was just wondering if I should see a doctor and get testings done.

If you have used a new lancet and has wiped the pen with alcohol then you have taken enough precautions and need not worry.
