The pharma said that the test will look for something synthetic.
The dr just called and spoke for some time. He said (gulp) that difficult child's heart palpitations and other symptoms, plus the postive for spice, actually sounded like he used. He said he's never had anyone call up or show up for low BiPolar (BP) and heart palpitations for Depakote.
He also said that he worked with-the military for 14 yrs doing testing for drugs, incl spice, and that a new test just came out last yr that separates it out from other things such as pot, because you don't want a false positive.
He recommended a confirmation test, if the P.O. saved the urine (doubtful), and re-rest it with-the exact same company. He said a blood test is a waste of time.
difficult child is texting me now, wanting info ... oh, I had asked him about the confirmation test and he said he saw the guy throw out the urine.
