@A MyChronicPainTeam Member I've never heard of a doctor telling someone to eat poppy seed bread for nausea. Seems to me the poppy seeds would further slow the emptying of your stomach contents. As for the dimetap sinus, it probably shows up as amphetamine in your urine. The Tylenol #3 you must have a prescription for, correct? So, that should not be a problem. We have to be proactive in our care. Thus said, stop the poppy seed bread for some time since YOU KNOW you are going to have a urine test. Also, the dimetap, stop that. Tylenol #3, you have a prescription, take the bottle with the label on it. I read what you said about nausea and all that, but if you need pain relief you have to be cooperative. Meaning, a doctor has to follow laws. If he gave patients opiates who show up with drugs in their urine, he could possibly lose his license, get fined, on his record, that would hurt his practice-his other patients. Good luck.

I am horrified that a church has turned it's back on you when to me you sound in dire need of love and support/prayer too. Not every church has this attitude and I hope your family members change their minds and give you the emotional and physical support that you need and deserve.
