It actually can get in your system by touching it. It goes in thru your pores just like if you touch coke or shrooms you'll get a little buzz. if you havent been in her type of situation dont judge her and quit talking down on her shes asking for help. i know from experience cus i used to be around all that stuff, girl u need to stop touching it and idk if ur helping them sell it but if u are at least use gloves or something. If u keep testing dirty THEY WILL TAKE YOUR BABY AWAY. It should leave your system in about 3 days as long as you quit messing with it

Ask for a retest. Also, you can further the breakdown of specifically what chemical showed up as meth since many prescription drugs can show a positive for meth on a drug screen. No worries about your weed being laced. No one would ever spend that kind of money for no pay back ;) and as far as someone cooking it, you would have to be in pretty close proximity for an extended period of time in order to come up hot. Chances are you took a prescribed drug that you didn't realize would test you positive. But like I said a further breakdown of the test will show that. It takes about 72 hours to show up clean if use is discontinued. I BTW, drug test people for a living. Lol.

Certain medicines and inhalers can cause a false positive but if you are exposed in the house that is most likely the cause. good luck you should try a church or planned parenthood or government assistance to find a place to stay.

My daughter just lost her first little boy to CPS at 5 weeks of age (Sept. 16) because she had marijuana and meth in her system The baby tested positive by hair sample for both as well. My daughter has a medical marijuana card for severe, long standing, GI issues for which conventional medicine has been unable to help. Marijuana is the only thing that allows her to keep food down (which is kind of important when you are pregnant for the health of mom and baby). She has never done meth in her life. She did find out in court, however, that her fiance admitted that he had been using meth (his levels were over 6000). We assume that she became exposed second hand through contact with him (yes you can absorb it into your skin from touching it or anything that the residue is on) and the baby became exposed in utero through her He probably continued to get exposed through contact with him post-natally. She is now having to take multiple classes and frequent drug testing now. She gets to visit her baby 3 times a week for 2 hours under CPS supervision and won't be getting him back until mid Dec.at the earliest. Just be very careful. CPS doesn't care how you may have become positive. They only see what they WANT to see. There are lots of shelters for pregnant women as well as young mothers out there. Your Dr should be able to get you in touch with one or call a domestic abuse hotline.
