SWIM was left confused after taking two separate hair follicle tests at the request of their lawyer. They were a daily concentrate smoker, and had undergone high CBD doses for melanoma skin cancer, hoping to aid in a natural extermination of the cancerous cells. Long story short this person was caught with concentrates and is being subjected to the law. Their lawyer requested a hair follicle test. They have done plenty of research and had many conversations with the lab specialists, and have been assured that after 3 months, use should not be showing up (add two weeks since the last sesh so the hair can grow out of the root). It has been over 4 months since their last time to smoke, and the MRO is still calling to report a positive result on the hair follicle test. SWIM is in good shape, has average metabolism and is in their lower 20s (yes a 20ish year old cancer survivor as well). The question is could the fact that they used concentrates at a very high frequency, could the metabolites continue to be deposited beyond 2-3 weeks beyond cessation of use. Another confusing aspect is another substance that was a one time use was still found, yet their daily ADD prescription for adderall did NOT show up. The test did not deliver levels of detection, only positive and negative. Can anyone help shed some light here? they are very confused by these results, as they have occurred TWO times in the past two weeks. the first test did show the prescription use, yet the second test did not. What is wrong here? SWIM has now paid for two separate tests, only to waste their money. The test was done by QUEST diagnostics. Anyone have similar experiences? they also offered (The MRO at QUEST) to send the same specimen to a different lab for a "retest". The collection place said that this is unusual for them to offer a re test at a different lab, for a higher price than the initial test. the re test was offered both times.
FRUSTRATING OR WHAT?! During the second test at the collection lab, they even took a shorter specimen than was requested for a 90 day hair follicle test... the sample was UNDER 1.5inches, yet it is still showing use. SWIM's hair grows significantly fast as well.
