This is the issue, it's about profit, once the states start realizing they can make more money legalizing it than confiscating it will be done. They don't give a **** about whose lives are affected by addiction. This is evident with alcohol and pharmaceutical narcotics.
I'm aware it's highly unlikely that anyone from the team will be posting here. However, there are plenty of others who aren't part of the team that could have valid information. Really starting to lose respect for this board and it's users. That being said this is my last irrelevant post on this topic. Hopefully things go well for DOB and the team moves forward with the next man up.
If a patient comes in after an injury and has altered mental status, neuro changes, abnormal vital signs, etc, a tox screen could be indicated to rule out other causes for such findings. Very common test in trauma cases.
The hospital will not drug test you without cause or without informing you. They cannot release that info as far as I know. I would imagine that he was tested prior to the game and with it being his last strike it was sent to a lab for confirmation. He more than likely failed it prior to Saturday.
They did a drug screen every time and told me what was in my system.
Do they do tox screens if they are going to give serious pain meds?
I've had numerous kidney stones.. Normally they ask but they could've tested me for all I know.. Not generally paying attention when I'm in that kind of pain..
Not correct. They test everybody before they will give a controlled substance. They also need to know if drugs could be causing the problem/symptoms. They never tell you unless you ask. Even then they may not give you the complete story. Sometimes it depends on how difficult or combative you are being,
Because it's a dangerous drug and a gateway drug. I grew in Colorado and I've seen what is does to people.
