Negative Test - False Accusations

[think4u62]

I hope I can get some assistance with this dilemma.  I am currently assisting a person dealing with PTSD , neurological and physical truama and a lot of the pain associated with being a victim of a gay hate crime.  For the past year and a half, he has been on several medications for depression, pain, sleep and for symptoms associated with PTSD anxiety and nightmares.  Recently, he was asked to submit a urine sample, and his test came out negative for the vicadine that he was taking "as needed", and was accused by the nurse and the doctor for "selling his medication" and not taking it as prescribed.  Now, 6 months earlier, this same man being accused of selling his medications, returned 3 prescriptions to the previous Dr. (she no longer works there) because the medications were not working with the other medications he was on.  The Dr. informed him that he was a liar, and that he was not going to treat him because if he was taking the medications, then he would test positive.  I saw this person approximately 1/2 in my office, shaking, crying and wondering "what he did wrong?"This doctor does not realize that this victim of a hate crime who suffers from PTSD, was just re-victimized, and sees nothing wrong with what he did.

Now, my question is, I know that this person takes numerous medications, and I informed him that he should go to his primary and discuss the situation and ask for both another urine and blood test.  He managed to do so the following day, and was administered the tests, but was denied another referral from his primary doctor for another pain management specialist.  The Cl is on disability, so does he have a choice, or can he seek another clinic/doctor without the referral?  Second, I know that this Cl takes his medications, but for some reason, the vicadin, anti-depressants and sleep meds did not show on either test, or than the "obvious" of not taking them, which in his condition is not likely, could there be a reason for this?

Any assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated, as I would like to assist this CL in the best manner possible

Respectfully,

Just found out that there is a special drug test for percept It is an opiod and if you are tested like me for opietes you will test negative. Most doctors use standard drug tests for opites not opiods. so this must be what happend to me and when I metioned this to the doctor that my doctor brought in to  interigated me and accused me of selling my meds he would`nt listen so come monday morning I will be faxing this info from google and show them they don`t know what they are doing!!!!

Hi npain:

This is a really old post. Why don't you copy and paste it in a new post. I'm sure that it will get ppls attention. At first I thought it was a current post but as I read on, it was evident that all is old.

Please re-post this.

Thanks,

I too had false negative urin tests and am accused of selling my meds. Lets consider this. Contact an attorney get a unbiased person and a notary. Go to thse folks and take the drugs there in front of 2 people with notarization. Go and pay the lab that gave you the false negative test and see if it happens again (false negative). If it does proceed with litigation againt the doctor and the lab with multiple suits. Malpractice, defamation, liable, pain and suffering. These "professionals" have stuck it to us and I feel turn about is fair play.
Who wants to play?

I hope you can give me some sort of answer. A person I know uses oxycontin plus breakthrough meds. She takes 40mg oxycontin threes times a day and five I think she said oxcodone. I cant answer this question  because I dont know anything about it and I'm having my own problems finding pain doctor. I told her I would see if I could find an answer for her. She said she woke up at one am  due to pain and took a oxycontin. then when she got up later she took 2 more. she didnt state what time it was. Then she took one more before her doctors appointment which she said was at two thrity. She had a blood test done that day   guess for how much was in her blood. She said she had forgot she had taken the one early in the morning. Sorry this is so long but she is worried her test will show up for taking two much of her meds. Can you help me with some kind of answer for her. She is driving me and herself insane.The medical assitant told her it was for a vitaim D test but she doesnt believe that. Thank you and hope you can help her. I am still trying to find a doctor. It is not easy when you have been labled as a person who sells their meds.
