Suggest Remedy For Paraplegic

I am a paraplegic and messed up last week by smoking 2 cocaine rocks trying to deal with my pain.Now I am pretty sure my DR. Might test me this Friday via urine which he sends off to a lab.I am a47 year old female and I don t move around a lot. Do you think the metabolites will show up? That is all I have done in a very long time I feel stupid.

Hi,

It is certainly possible that metabolites of cocaine can show up in the urine.

In urine tox screens I have found that patients who are willing to report their activities stand a more likely chance of overcoming their behaviors going forward than by trying to keep it a secret since often times lab results do come out positive and then, things get more complicated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dariush Saghafi, Neurologist
