I was standing next to the nurse when she ran the 15 panel test. She asked if I take a med and I said yep. The test showed a type of Benzo,I knew it would because I am taking a presciption. So it has to be sent to a lab to define which Benzo it is,and it better line up with your prescript. They sent the results back to the employer before I got to the car and the Company called saying that I tested pos.No shock there! And told them I take a med by doctor's orders and they said they would call me when the results come back from the lab. It would be no different if I was taking a pain killer. The law says if you are prescribed a Narcotic,they can't hold it against you. Thats my understanding.
