I have fibromyalgia, restless leg syndrome, and HLA B27 Arthritis. I recently have begun treatment with a pain management clinic, and they have put me on a consistant dose of Norco(hydrocodone-acetemetiphan 10-325mg) Previously the main thing i have used for relief is Cannabis. I have tried many different medications, and i get the best relief from Cannabis and Norco. The problem i am facing now is that the pain clinic does not recognize Cannabis as a legit drug even as a legal California medical marijuana patient. The pain management clinic i am going to is going to be randomly drug testing me, and have told me that they can not give me the Norco if im going to continuing to ingest cannabis. The problem is they are not giving me anything for the symptoms cannabis relieves(ie. Nausea from the Norco, appetite, anxiety, restless legs, and sleep aid.) So im quite aware its kind of a stretch, but... does anyone know of any possible way i could continue taking the Norco and the Cannabis, and when the drug test comes around be able to test positive for the Norco but negative for the Cannabis/Marijuana? any input on my situation would be greatly appreciated and i thank you deeply from my heart for even taking the time to read my question... i could really use some help. Also, maybe if someone knows of a better pain management center or clinic in the Oakland, CA area that doesn't do random testing?... Read More »
