A member asked:

What do blood tests check for? i have a friend who has to get regular blood work done to check his kidneys and liver. im worried that theyre going to fin pot in his system. can that kind of blood test show pot?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See below : Routine blood tests do not look for pot. It is urine that is commonly the specimen for drug tests. Even the lab will only do the test if specifically ordered by the doctor.
