Today I will be going to do my drug screen for insurance... I can pass a urine test but in regards to thc in my blood from months back I will fail. If it were legal here for medicinal purposes I wouldnt have an issue but it is not. My question to everyone or anyone have you been turned down because of your drug screen?

Good Morning Everyone, the day is nearing (November 7th). Has anyone had surgery @ the CC in Weston how was your stay? I am told I will be in for 24hrs (were you). This is hospital is a 2hr drive from home so my wonderful husband is staying with me (will they accommodate him as well?). I have had multiple surgeries before over c-sections gone wrong so i feel like I know what to bring however curious to what a wls patient would bring?

7days before surgery and now scared

My surgery is November 7th... I jumped through all the hoops for insurance and was approved so fast. I knew before I started that i wouldnt get paid sick leave or temp disability but I went for it anyways. I was prepared to make life happen on my fiancees pay but now its really hitting me that I must depend on someone else again and I havent had to do that since I was with my abusive, drug addict, exhusband nearly 8yrs ago. I hate knowing i wont have my own money coming in to support my children. I know my fiancee loves me and my children we have been together for 6.5yrs. I have worked for myself for 6yrs, i dont take vacations and I dont ask for help...this isnt like me to lay down and accept help...especially nearing Christmas... How do I learn to accept that i will not be providing for my children for almost 6wks and to accept his help? Sent from my LGLS775 using the BariatricPal App -

I have severe ptsd from an abusive exhusband. I was in shock to find out that i had to pass a drug screen... So i have just been suffering until this but have slipped up once and that was after my sons latest diagnosis. I was 17 when my father died... The pills ate up his liver and then his kidneys. I was in the office when my daddy asked for help to ween off but instead the doctor wrote another script for oxycotin...about 2mths later my dad was given 6mths he then lived for 3mths... There isnt in room in my life for narcotics and i joke that 1-800mg of ibuprofen can knock me out (its true). Even when i have had surgeries i only tolerate the narcotics for a brief time and then i cope with the pain. Thank you Vamping for your understanding.
