TESSIENP

An hpmp participant for almost 4 years. Recently a urine showed positive nitrites and I was asked if I had adulterated. Of course, no. And the split sample was repeated. I didn't hear anything, didn't have anything to hide, assumed all was good....

Happy Holidays. Incidental exposure to etoh is supposedly factored into the UDS cutoff amounts. Saying that, for etoh is often zero. I hope the split is being tested for presence of egt because it is a metabolite of etoh. If it's present, the ass...

OK, I finally had a BON and hearing, and found to have not violated any laws or regulations governing the field of nursing or NP. But, I still don't have a job, and now I've not worked for over a year as an NP and numerous years as an RN. I've cont...

Still no board hearing. Things are not going well. Not working at all anymore. I've talked to many attorneys and all state a win for me is being allowed back into VAHPMP. Just so I can live in fear that this will happen again?! When will this ...

I've not contacted another lawyer. I've got one in mind from the taana website. The world situation has put everything on hold for me.

Well the covid virus has put everything on hold. Thought I'd get a financial gift with the stimulus package going out, but "nope", based the amount given on 2018 income taxes. Making to the end of this year without having to sell my house is looki...

I was dismissed formerly, but it about 5 days to finally get a straight dismissal. I need lots of prayers and any suggestions for Virginia lawyers. Mine still says I need to wait on board hearing, I agree. But, him telling me HPMP has immunity is...

Well, finally, an investigation has started. This is my 3rd investigation and first without being my own worst enemy. My lawyer has informed me that even if BON sides with me and states HPMP was in error, I still cant hold HPMP liable for defamat...

I had a hair follicle test in November, when everything started and a polygraph. It went back 26 months. And ofcourse, I had been completing random drug screens until November, when I was "urgently " dismissed from HPMP. None of this is easy. ...

It sounds like your organization wrote a complaint for the muscle relaxers and tornado. Its the diversion that's the issue. If it's not substances. I've depended on lots of support from friends and a psychologist to help me thru. I believe I hav...

Finally the board of nursing has started its "investigatio", and HPMP's complaints are from my entire time with them. I'm hoping I can have enough peace of mind to answer the investigators questions. Already had a flash of anger at the tone of thei...

I'm working in a convenience store. 7 days a week. 2 weeks for a paycheck of what I used to make in one day. Quite humbling, frustrating. Not much in my really small town. I just love having patients come in and see me working there. I never kn...

Its been almost 3 months since I was accused of adulterating a urine. I have active licenses, but unable to get credentialed, or get a job as an RN. My savings are running out. I haven't been given a date for a board hearing. I dont know what to...

I've still not received a board hearing. Money is running low. I'm scared and frustrated.

Received results from my polygraph, he took 2 tests. One was inconclusive, the 2nd " not deceptive". That thing was not what I expected, because the questions of me tampering with my urine or altering my urine in any way, upset me. And that's the ...

Lawyer, any day of the week. Get a lawyer, tell the investigator that everything will be handled thru him or her. Make sure the lawyer has knowledge of medical boards. Your lawyer will set up a time for the investigator to interview you and shoul...

So, I have completed the polygraph and had a hair follicle test. I've also continued my daily check ins. I'm thankful to whomever informed me to do so, because I was picked yesterday. I contacted my CM to ask if I was supposed to complete it, bei...

I used my resources, I used my program, and ONE DAY, ONE FRACTION OF A DAY, I'll get through this. Now, I'm waiting to see how long my employer will keep me. That's another conundrum, because I actually resigned the Friday before I received the ne...

I relapsed in the program over 1 year ago. I self reported. The only positive test was then. Since then, you would not believe the things I've done and been required to do by HPMP; taking naltrexone, having coworkers witness me taking naltrexone ...

My program automatically dismissed me for intentional adulteration of urine. Now waiting to see if employer will let me go because of HPMP report. My lawyer has recommended a polygraph, which is my next step in this process. For HPMP to be a prog...

I've a friend who'd always do a blood draw after missed check ins. It did catch up to her though, they added a year to her 5 year contract. Now its 6 years. VAHPMP

Its 1130pm. I can't sleep worried about this. I can remember the feelings of guilt and shame in active addiction, and I hate that this feels similar. Made an appt with my psychologist for tomorrow, even if this pans out to be the error it is, it...

Lots. It has to be contamination. But, on pins and needles to see how HPMP finds it. Could be immediately dismissed from program. Sucks, because it could happen to any of us. An error on the side of someone else, costing careers ( I'm ready to ...
