1. If you could recommend changes, what would you suggest?

   nurse_kee77 replied to SororAKS's topic in Recovery

   I'd be likely dead if not for mandatory AA. I am a true alcoholic/addict . I would not have made it through this program this far without AA. Not would I have ever gone to AA / NA without PNAP mandating it in my contract.

2. Feeling like giving up right now

   nurse_kee77 replied to nurse_kee77's topic in Recovery

   I found out I definitely AM an alcoholic and I've been very thankful for the fellowship of AA so I could identify and get better . I'm very grateful to God I've been sober 15+ months. So to have a positive Test turn up was very unnerving. I ultimatel...

   I absolutely have not intentionally ingested anything like a drink. But the Dijon mustard I bought when my brain was in diet mode wasn't thinking about what was in it other than it was low calorie. When I tested positive I blamed the ecig because tha...

   How can I tell 100% for sure what products will cause positive etg. I want a list of what to avoid.

   nurse_kee77 replied to nurse_kee77's topic in Recovery

   Turns out I wasn't being as careful as I thought I was. And bottom line is that I'm contractually obligated to know what I'm consuming. I had Dijon mustard in my fridge and I had that twice this week . I could kick myself right now !!!! Ugh

9. Ecig causes false positive

   nurse_kee77 replied to nurse_kee77's topic in Recovery

   This really has me freaked out. I thought I was being careful and I'm not. I found other things in our fridge I shouldn't be consuming. I could kick myself.

    The scary thing is that alcohol isn't even listed on the package. I had to research it all after the positive screen. Be aware people. Incidental exposure is a real danger

11. Ecig causes false positive

    nurse_kee77 replied to nurse_kee77's topic in Recovery

    I'm sorry etg. But I found out it's not the PG that causes the etg positive that there is actual alcohol for flavoring in those things.

    nurse_kee77 posted a topic in Recovery

    I'm very discouraged I tried to quit smoking using a BLU e cigarette. And my urine tested positive for alcohol. I have never had a positive screen in 1 1/2 years on PNAP and now this. I always check food labels, but I failed to even consider the ciga...

13. Ecig causes false positive

    nurse_kee77 posted a topic in Recovery

    Any ecig or vape containing propylene glycol causes positive urine for alcohol . just happened to me!!!! I had no idea. I'm always careful with what I eat and things. Never expected this when I bought one.

14. Drug urine test after 12 hour shift

    nurse_kee77 replied to Kallie3006's topic in Recovery

    My best advice is first to be honest with yourself if you are using. Get in the program and get well. It saved my life. I fought being honest at first and it cost my license when if I'd just been honest I could have gotten the help I needed sooner an...

15. Grrrrr, just one of those days (rant)

    nurse_kee77 replied to SororAKS's topic in Recovery

    When I first began monitoring , I had a huge resentment. The money, the perceived "loss of freedom" etc .. Now at 15 months clean and sober I am forever thankful for monitoring . I went from not realizing that I am an alcoholic to living happy , joyo...
