Drug Test Shows Positive For Cocaine. Have Diabetes, Copd, Reoccuring MRSA, Irregular Kidney Function. Any Possible Metabolic Disoreder Causing Positive For Cocaine?
My husband has diabetes, had quadruple bypass, copd, reoccuring MRSA, irregular kidney function and was recently drug tested. The test show positive for cocaine but he doen't use cocaine. It is my understanding the is no possible way for cocaine to have a false positive. I was wondering if he has a metabolic disorder causing this result. His latest A1C was over 11.

hi,
as for as i know, there is no metabolism in the body producing cocaine. there is chance that he may be using, try to ask him in cool way, without loosing cool.
he has to control diet, regular in medications, and regualr physical activity, if possible any alternative system along with that and insulin may be as his Hb A1C is very high.
wish him good health
