[Ramrod1015]

I am on parole.
I just started taking methadone,
if my p.o. gives me a drug test,will methadone show up.???
I think the tests we get are 6, or 8 pannel...

How are you today?

[dominosarah]

Honesty is still the best policy.

My husband is on methadone and no it won't show up he is on probation he gets dropped twice a mth..and if your getting it from a Dr they can't violate you.the judge will like that your getting some sort of treatment..

I don't know....when I was on subs and they would urine test me I would come up clean? I'm not sure on this one but I would definately get something in writing from your methadone clinic stating that you are a patient of theirs in a legal program, just in case.

[dominosarah]

Do you have a good relationship with her? (well as good as can be expected!)

[Ramrod1015]

On the 17th of this month.....

[dominosarah]

I am glad to hear you are getting this thru a doctor and not on the street.  When do you meet with your PO?

[Ramrod1015]

Yes, just started today.

[dominosarah]

Are you going to a Methadone clinic?

[dominosarah]

We are here to help you so am glad you are here.

[dominosarah]

How long you been doing H?

Being honest with her will work out much better for you than trying to hide your secret as it will come out.  I would hope she would direct you to some sort of recovery care instead of violating you.  Our secrets keep us sick.

I'm pretty sure methadone would deff show up in drug test. It's a strong long lasting drug.

[Ramrod1015]

Well, i kinda relapsed, and im getting help now.
But i dont want to tell her, in fear she might violate
My parole

Are you prescibed the Methadone?  Your PO should know what meds you are taking.
