Blood tests for illness-

[SmokinMom]

I have been having some issues lately and I have a Dr appt. I plan to ask him to do several blood tests for certain disorders to see what may be going on with me....

Will these tests reveal my MJ use??? These tests won't be a 'drug test' so to speak, but still it got me thinking...

What do you think???

Should I tell my Dr I occassionally self-medicate???

Help!

Hi Smokin Mom, as far as I know, it must be tested specifically for drugs before they can find it. Peace ..

Whew, I hope that's the case.

SmokinMom just come out and tell him you are smoking. They really don't care if your smoking or not. Crap i told my Doc and he had nothing to say. Good luck and hope your felling better soon.

..I believe it's called "doctor/patiant confidentiality"...I'm not positive, but I don't believe he is allowed to reveal that info, without your consent.

Okay good.

See my fear is if insurance would require it, then I fail and then they cancel our coverage or something sucky like that...

Thanks.
