False negative drug screen

[colleen1212]

I am taking a low dose of Percocet 5-325 3x's a day, for chronic back and neck pain from a MVA. The problem is that even though I take it the way I should, I have had 2 negative drug screens.  What can cause this. Please help.

I went to the doctor today and to my surprise I failed a urine test for methadone I can't even take it I will throw up I probably will loose him as a Dr I have been with him for 5years now and I have to wait and see if he'll give me my pain meds wow that is messed up yet he's never seen anything about the real issues I'm having trouble with.. Really...

I started on pain management just a few months ago and I have had negative test results every time I have been to the doctor.  He doesn't believe me when I say that I am taking the meds.  I have researched the medicine and there are tons of complaints about it. It's the new Watson 853 white hydrocodone 10/325.  It doesn't work.  It seems like a 5 mg hydro.  Last time I went I took two about 2 hours before I went to the doctor.  I don't get it.

I have SEVERAL health problems and I take a lot of meds: Citalopram, Gabapentin, Zopran, Phenergran, Bentyl, Amitriptiline, Trazadone, Dilantin, Wellbutrin, Topomax, Flonase,Protonix, Lipitor, and Coumadin

If you know that any of these meds are interfering, please advise.  Thank you for your help.

I have recurring Pulmonary Embolisms, Lupus, Migraines, Neuropathy, Spinal Arthritis, and Celiacs
