Please Help Me Understand Drug Test Results :-(?
Question by NoName: Please help me understand drug test results :-(?
Hello,
I am currently on Norco 7.5 four times daily due to nerve damage and injury to my spine. I also take 30mg Adderall IR daily as prescribed, and take Ritalin 20mg on the weekends or on my days off, as well as 3 mg Klonopin and 2400mg Gabapentin for nerve damage daily.
I have no idea how drug testing or cutoffs work or anything like that, and I frankly wasn’t concerned when I went in for my first pain contract test as I’ve done nothing wrong (I asked to go on a contract after an Urgent Care doc treated me like a drug addict. It was a lovely experience. He sent me home after trying to force me into pain meds I didn’t want, with a partially dislocated shoulder (that he “overlooked”).
Anyway, after my test, my p-doc told me he wanted to do another. I was confused as well because I came back positive for Hydromorphone, which I have never taken, but he said that wasn’t the issue. He said they were worried there was an error in testing.
Now, I feel weird. Not nervous or anything, I just wonder if they’re actually worried about contamination/a testing issue, or if there is a problem with my levels/there is a false positive or strange level I’m not aware of.
Here they are (the first number is my value and I put my “positives” at the top so that they’re easier to find):
I’m 5’4″, approx 110-115 lbs depending on the day.
AMPHETAMINE-BY GC/MS 910 Cutoff: 50 ng/mL
HYDROCODONE-BY GC/MS 180 Cutoff: 100 ng/mL
HYDROMORPHONE-BY GC/MS 129 Cutoff: 100 ng/mL
PHENTERMINE-BY GC/MS Test not performed Cutoff: 50 ng/mL
METHAMPHETAMINE-BY GC/MS Negative Cutoff: 50 ng/mL
PSEUDOEPHEDRINE/EPHEDRINE-BY GC/MS Negative Cutoff: 50 ng/mL
MDA (ECSTASY METABOLITE)-BY GC/MS Negative Cutoff: 50 ng/mL
MDMA (ECSTASY)-BY GC/MS Negative Cutoff: 50 ng/mL
BARBITURATES Negative Cutoff: 200 ng/mL
BENZODIAZEPINES Negative Cutoff: 200 ng/mL
COCAINE Negative Cutoff: 150 ng/mL
METHADONE Negative Cutoff: 300 ng/mL
PHENCYCLIDINE Negative Cutoff: 25 ng/mL
PROPOXYPHENE Negative Cutoff: 300 ng/mL
TETRAHYDROCANNABINOL Negative Cutoff: 20 ng/mL
CODEINE-BY GC/MS Negative Cutoff: 100 ng/mL
OXYCODONE-BY GC/MS Negative Cutoff: 100 ng/mL
MORPHINE-BY GC/MS Negative Cutoff: 100 ng/mL
So, hopefully smart ones, what’s the issue? Do my numbers look normal? I’m questioning the accuracy of testing after this if I came up over/under for anything I shouldn’t have.
Oh please, interpret and enlighten me :-).
I appreciate it.
I am most definitely taking Klonopin. I take one after work, one after dinner, and one before bed. How can this come up negative?

From those test results it looks as though you are not taking your Klonopin as benzodiazepines came back negative.
