Question 1

if my wife gives birth in idaho and test positive for thc what will doctors do?

Accepted Answer

: First, unlikely tox screen would be done for a routine labor and delivery.  Second be upfront and let doctor know as THC can affect doses of analgesics and anesthesia if needed

Question 2

what can make you test positive for thc if you do not use drugs of any kind and do not smoke? is it possible to be lab error?

Accepted Answer

See below: Nothing.  However. Very low levels can be passively acquired.

Question 3

i was given a random drug test at work and i smoked weed 11 days before . i never smoke and i regret it. will i test positive for thc i never smoke?

Accepted Answer

"Never"?: Depending on how often you use, it's possible that you could test positive for thc even 11 days after.  Sounds like your "i never smoke" is not exactly correct?

Question 4

can i test positive for thc thru kissing if i take a urine  test ?

Accepted Answer

Confusing question: If you are wondering if kissing a stoner will turn you positive I would say no. However, if you spend time with them and are exposed to second hand smoke, you might.

Question 5

if i stop smoking 5 months before delivery, but have smoked heavy for many years, will my baby test positive for thc?

Accepted Answer

No, but....,,,,: ...The damage might have already be done to the fetus! The fetal organs like brain, heart and others develop early and throughout pregnancy. Drug use during early stages of pregnancy negatively affects the development of these organs. However if you're still using drugs during your pregnancy, stopping at any stage is better than continuing and please do and talk to your obstetrician about it.

Question 6

can you test positive for thc if all you do is handle marijuana. such as rolling a joint, growing and cutting it up?

Accepted Answer

Doubt it ...but: I doubt that it would show at all with this type of contact. However, I believe there are home urine tests you can find in various locations in stores or online that are not expensive. You can look into the reliability of such products and test at home if this is important. A first morning urine is more concentrated &amp; more likely to show any.

Question 7

can a patient receiving multiple blood and plasma transfusions test positive for thc if the blood donor had recently used marijauna?

Accepted Answer

Not likely: The amount of thc in blood or blood products is not likely to cause a positive urine test. You are more likely to get a positive test from exposure to second hand marijuana smoke.

Question 8

why was my drug test positive for thc & cocaine when all i take is 500mg naproxen?

Accepted Answer

False positive?: False positives have been reported with use of NSAIDs (anti-inflammatory agents). May need to repeat test.

Question 9

i'm 34 weeks and 3 days pregnant. i stopped smoking pot 3 days ago. will my urine test positive for thc when i'm due? i smoked daily for the most part

Accepted Answer

MAYBE: This material can linger for extended periods in your system depending on the chronicity  of use. Some urine testing may be sensitive enough to pick this up, depending on how long you abstain/when you deliver.They will find it if they test the babies poo, which is where I go to find it. If your not on a CPS watch list, and they don't suspect you, they are unlikely to test for it.

Question 10

i smoked marijuana up until 23 weeks pregnant.  can my baby test positive for thc if i no longer am smoking?

Accepted Answer

Test isn't the prob: You and your baby share everything. THC is passed across the placenta to the fetus. It is good that you have stopped. You should also not drink, smoke cigarets or use other drugs during pregnancy due to risk to the fetus. Please get prenatal care if you have not already.
