Norco 10 325 6 Per Day For Years Now On A Dr Drug Screen Faint Line Oxycotin

Updated

I'm so confused today I did my normal every 2 weeks drug screening, I'm on norco 10/325 2 pills every 8hrs. & most days I still last in bed in tears but will not take more than perscribed. Today, my dr comes in & starts yelling at me, b/c I had a very "faint" line showing OXYCOTIN! I'm not even sure what that is.. & when I said to him "whats that?" He told me "you're not stupid" & never even answered me!! I have never taken this or know one person who does! Now my dr is having a nurse come to my home once a week to "counsel" me! I've been on these meds for over 2 years, every drug test normal... Now I'm confused & lost, & I didn't do ANYTHING OR TAKE ANYTHING OTHER THAN WHAT I'M PERSCRIBED! I don't understand, I've never taken anything of anyone elses... Does anyone have insight on what I can do??

Norco contains Acetaminophen and Hydrocodone and the Hydrocodone is a narcotic opiate.

If the doctor uses a less expensive, non-certified test, they are well known to give false positives anywhere from 4 to 50% of the time and many synthetic, or semi-synthetic narcotics can cause them on these tests for other related narcotics.

So, there is a chance that the Hydrocodone itself caused a false positive for Oxycodone, which is the active ingredient in Oxycontin.

I am not sure what you can do though, other than try to get them to do more in-depth testing via an actual lab, or look for another doctor. It really doesn't sound like your pain is being managed well by this doctor, anyway.

Have you thought of trying to find someone else to see?

Maybe suggest getting your blood tested next time instead of urine. Those tests are famously inaccurate and also handled by Humans! I will pray for your pain to be taken away so you don't need the pills anymore. I just started acupuncture and it has been amazing. I feel like a new person every time I leave there. I know it's not for everyone and it sounds like your doc bills are probably pretty high with the dosages you must take but it is so worth it. It addresses the problem from the inside out and doesn't just cover the symptoms with a painkiller. After two years of being in bed all the time unable to care for my twin toddlers unless I took a pill before rolling out of bed got old...I decided to give it a whirl. Still whirling...still whirling...

I'm in nursing school and just did my rotation at the methadone clinic and saw many drug tests. A faint line showed on every OxyContin test. When I asked the nurse practitioner this she said that most of the tests for that show a faint line and especially the cheaper variety that the clinic uses and that they only read it as positive if the line was dark. On a side note I'd get a new doc if I was you because if this is a common thing that he doesn't know about and he yelled at you he's not a very good doc

Pardon me not if the line is dark it's if there is no line as a faint line is common.
