Suggest Tests To Confirm Drug Addiction

I noticed a few scabies sores on the back of my daughters legs and asked her about them prior to be admitted in a drug facility. She said I guess they are bug bites. She told the doctor that she was addicted to opiates but knew it would eventually to meth or heroine. What is the likelihood that she is addicted to meth or heroine but doesn t want to come forwarded.

Hello Welcome to Health Care Magic.
Don't worry much. Stay calm.
your daughter has come forward for improvement. scabies sores or bug bites do not suggest that she is addicted to meth or heroine. but support your daughter and improve her confidence. once she is not feared she will exactly let you know what the exact situation is.

Hope this information helps you.
Best wishes.
