Drug screen and insurance



Recommended Posts

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?

What kind of insurance? When I had a drug screen for Life insurance it was a urine test, not blood test. And blood tests shouldn't go back months anyways. hair tests, yes.

I am totally not judging you!

I have no issue with people using marijuana - medicinally or recreationally. And I think it's a heck of a lot better than opioid pain medication.

I was just curious what type of insurance you had to get drug screened for. Is that for Medicaid? The only time I've ever been drug screened was for life insurance.

One thing to note, for my life insurance, it didn't matter if you were a medical patient or not (I live in MI where medicinal is legal), if you tested positive to marijuana you weren't denied insurance, but you automatically got a "smoker" rate. Which is ridiculous on many levels, but that's another topic.

@@wantenergy83 I definitely don't think you are a bad person or a loser by a long shot. I am glad you found something that works to help you pain. Some of the most productive people I know use cannibas to manage their pain, PTSD, and anxiety. It's what helps them stay productive. I am a big believer of "your body, your choice". I am also very sorry about your dad. It's hard to lose someone and I can't imagine how awful that must have been to lose him to prescription pain pills.

Wishing you the best and hoping your blood test turns out in your favor.

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.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
