Interesting. I'm rather confident that she is not getting a physical there tomorrow. The form we are required to take is titled "<State name> Drug Free Workplace Chain of Custody Form". Also, the info sent by the organization hiring her says (regarding the drug test):

"I understand that the ____ has adopted the drug testing program as mandated by the Department of Transportation (DOT)....

.....

.... I hereby concent to the taking of urine or other type of samples as approved by the DOT for purposes of the above drug testing program and to the test of such samples by <labatory and doctor's name>....."


And never mentions anything about a physical, or other blood test for non-drug reasons, or medical tests, etc... *shrugs* Doesn't mean absolutely not, but my gut (and the phone call with the lab this morning) made me really think it was a quick urinalysis, nothing more. Interesting to hear what you said about the string I listed though. Very.


I called the people at PassYourDrugTest.com (not that I trust them anywhere NEAR the level to which I trust and respect your advice) to explain her situation and ask if there was ANY chance to their knowledge of whether or not that syrup and the vitamin capsule she is instructed to eat tomorrow could cause a contaminated or invalid or 'masking agent' result. They told me no. When asked if they have EVER had it come up as a masking agent they said that if it ever happens or they learn how to test for it, they change the formula. And that no, the syrup I have has never had any problems.

Not sure if that answer made me feel better or worse. LOL! Anyhow - and I'm gonna sound like a broken record on repeat here - my heart of hearts tells me to use it because we'd rather have to answer to claims of the sample being dilluted or invalid or full of substances to the point of them thinking we were masking, than have to answer for a level of THC found in her urine. <-- As THAT would not be a question to be answered, it would be a curtain call.

So I think we're set with what we're doing. And the fact that YOU, FBR, haven't taken issue with this syrup, looked through all the ingredients, and still feel she'll be fine taking it, has REALLY made me feel reassured and cemented my decision. You told me last week that there is a chance (albeit it very slight) that she could pass a home kit the morning of and still fail at the lab. Any chance is too much in this case, so I think being 'better safe than sorry' with the Duz'Z It is the right call here.

I'll surely let you know how it goes.... and thanks once again for all of your help, man, I can't tell you how much it has meant to the two of us!
