More information is needed here on the facts surrounding the testing. Was your physical pursuant to a job? In other words, was this an employment physical? You may have signed a consent with out realizing. Or was this done as part of an OB/GYN physical and are you pregnant? If these facts fit then your rights could have been violated. But the facts of your case will govern the guidance here so speak with an attorney in your area. Good luck.
