I have hepatitis and am seeing a liver doctor. I was telling her how I was having problems with my current doc, and how he wont seem to order me any tests as I am having pain because I think he might think I am junky because I have hep c and drug seeking. I don't know if this was a good thing to say or not to her. But, anyways she wanted me to see another psych because I have depression that hasn't went away since I seen her 4 years ago. I told her he has tried a bunch of meds and nothing works, and he is giving me benzo's and I don't want to go to another psych and have me withdrawal from them, as WD from benzos is not that fun. When she left she gave me a normal blood work to test my liver function which I just got done, but she also added something called a "drug serum screen" and something about testing for metabolites. I don't know why she gave me this but I am guessing it is either to see if my liver is clearing the benzo's. But, I have smoked marijuana to help with the nausea I get.. I can get a medical MJ card but have not taken the time to do so, and there is no way the card will be processed by next time I see her. The thing I am scared of is she asked me for my psychs name and I gave it to her. If it did show marijuana in my test could she go and call my psych? I am not even sure which drugs it is testing for as it does not indicate the drug, is there any way to find this out? I read one page doing a search that drug serum tests would only show the benzo's but can they indicate other drugs without my knowledge? I just hope because I said I don't want to go through benzo withdrawal and she wants me to find another psych she isn't setting me up. I need the benzos for anxiety, and the adderal for ADD or I cant focus.

BTW its not like this is a must, if she did test for marijuana I could simply stop smoking and wait, or find another liver doctor. Just wanting to know if MJ shows on drug serum tests, or if she has the authority to call my psych, and if she didnt why would she even care to get his name from me.
