Default Re: Medical EV problem

An 'elective' amneocentisis can be rejected by either parent in the US. However, most applications of these tests are not elective, but rather forced by a doctor to either protect the life of the baby or the mother.

This is incorrect. You (assuming you are competent) can not be forced to undergo any test for any reason. Any doctor that administers an amnio without consent is committing battery.

EDIT: this is in the US. I don't know about other places.
