False negatives for methadone

[geebaby211livecom123]

I am recieving methadone at a clinic for detox. I have had weekly take homes for 1 yr. Now for some reason I have a false negative for Methadone. Is there any drug that would make me come up negative for Methadone?

ive been in a pain managment for over 8 yrs, ive been on methadone 25 mgs a day...i took a urine test and it came back negative?? ive never NOT taken this med as the pain and wd are inhuman...but she wouldnt give me a refill, and i cant get into a new pm for about a week and a half. Im on day 4 of not sleeping, not eating, dry heaves, shakes, diahrea, resltless legs etc, i cannot believe they are allowed to do this, if i were diabetic, would they take my meds? they said i was negative for anything, had not a tylenol nothing in my system. i asked for them to retest but they refused and discharged me..so now im in a hell over someones error

Are you being penalized for receiving the neg methadone reading?

Hi I think you have said it right in your post.  It was a false negative.  It was a lab error
I have had false negatives for Hep C and false positives for Hep B
I guess if you test enough many people would get it
Good luck
