hey redneck girl- welcome to the forum! & to recovery! i have seen posted on here of a way to find out what each test is for. however, IMO & as others have said- the easiet & best way to not have to worry about it is to abstain from just about everything. i take occasional tylenol, motrin & that's it. no cold medicines, no sleep aids, no exedrin, no foods with alcohol, etc.- then i don't have to worry about it. you should have received a list of meds that are safe to take & those to avoid- just avoid them!! best of luck- you will find lots of help here!!
