I know I am posting this a little too late to recieve any help or answers, but I thought it might help me to get it out brfore I know the truth, and please still feel free to reply for, I won't know the results for several days. Here is my quandry, I am currently on the methadone maitenance program for two months today I had my first urine test since I initially began the program. I have been completely clean off all opiates or any illicit substances, except appoximately 36 days ago was the last time I used marijuana for about 2 wks. straight. I am approxamately 50 lbs. over weight and oh my sweet Jesus, I am soooo worried about getting a dirty test. I was such an idiot and had my head on backwards when I first got into the program, I totally didn't think of the future or any consequences, That I might have had to endure. My question is do you think I can squeak by? I have been praying to the Lord Jesus Christ every day, and I know he provides no "magical" cures, but can I have Y'alls opinion on this matter. I need help sooo very bad and support from you all even be it bad news. Thank you all so much!!!

dian,

Your probably going to be ok. Since it was only a two week stretch and your not a chronic user you'll probably be fine. However, if you weren't sure and wanted some peace of mind you should of bought a test kit at your local pharmacy. There 99.9 accurate. You would of known for sure. But I think you'll be fine. I know people who smoked regularly and in two weeks they came back with a negative result. 36 days is good amount of time. It is great that you are aware of your mistake and admit that it was not to smart. One thing, Methadone is an opiate. I understand that you feel you haven't used opiates for a few months, but again Methadone is an opiate and very strong one for that matter. But if it keeps you on the right path more power to you. Addiction is a hell of thing. I have been off of opiates over 8 months and I was a heavy opiate user for 10 yrs. They gave me Methadone as a supplement to all the other opiates I was on. It's crazy. Good luck to you. Hope you pass your test. And for the record I think that it is rediculous that herb is illegal. We are such a backward country. God Bless.

thank you for your opinion, it's funny you said that about the testing kit, because I bought one one when I came home today and the control line showed up real dark but the negative line definately had a line but is was very faint. what do you make of that?

[vduda]

As long as there is a line your fine. It does not have to be dark, even if it is a light pink it is considered to be a negative result, meaning your clean. You need to worry if there is no line at all.
