    as a RN myself, i can tell you that the Dr. or medical staff providing treatment cannot release your medical info to anyone due to the Health Information Portability Protection Act (HIPPA). An MD doing this would result in major consequences for them.

    My Doctor gives me blood tests. Advice; comes over to my lake house on his speed boat. I tell him everything. He saved my life twice. He keeps me in line.
    If he told me to stop. I would. Even my Cardio Doc says Ok, just not continous or abusive. I get blood tests every 6 weeks. If something is going to happen it will show up in blood work in advance. Find a Doctor that looks after you. Hell, my doctor has Tamiflu for my family in case of a pandemic.

    HIPPA laws permit doctors from telling personal medical history to ANYONE. As a police officer I cannot arrest someone for "being under the influence of controlled substance" unless they are driving a car. So you can be as high as you want as long as I don't find it on you or your driving. Again laws differ from state to state but I think that HIPPA applies to ALL states.
