  1. Officially Completed My Contract

    Yellowbird68 posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    Hey everyone, I completed my contract about a week ago. It was a 2 year contract. I told myself when I finished that I would do my best to try and help others feel less afraid/overwhelmed since...

  2. Phmp VRP

    Yellowbird68 replied to Vetinpgh's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Yea, there's people I have read in these forums, myself and people in my previous group that LEGIT shouldn't be in monitoring at all. It's honestly insane. Crazy enough I actually did benefit from the...

  3. Phmp VRP

    Yellowbird68 replied to Vetinpgh's topic in Nurses Recovery

    It was definitely on my list of "over the counter meds that you shouldn't take and if you do you should get permission". I would do whatever you are comfortable with... I will say this, I don't...

  4. Phmp VRP

    Yellowbird68 replied to Vetinpgh's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Yea I made a post today about being free. I have a surprising amount of anxiety because I constantly feel like I'm forgetting something important. Very uptight and on edge. That's interesting that...

  5. Phmp VRP

    Yellowbird68 replied to Vetinpgh's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Hey there, I'm not in the same state as you but I finished my 2 year contract last week. I finished on the EXACT day I signed the contract 2 years ago. Others in my group got out 4-5 days early...

    Yellowbird68 replied to Sumi's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'm not sure how much help this is, but when I was in a program there were several people in my group who were doing their second round of monitoring after completing the program.... Relapsing and...

  7. Officially Completed My Contract

    Yellowbird68 replied to Yellowbird68's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I believe it's because I do not actually have an addiction issue. No history of drug use, not even weed when I was younger. I might drink around Christmas or at a concert otherwise I don't do that...

  8. Recovery- PEth test

    Yellowbird68 replied to Jpweston's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Admit nothing until the test comes back and you know if it's positive or not. If it's not positive, take that as a lesson, you do not want to be in the program longer than you have to be. Reach...

  9. New to testing recovery trek help

    Yellowbird68 replied to Bellatrixlestrange's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Hey OP, I agree with what Universe said. I just finished my contract last week but when it comes to accidental exposures— the ONLY time I have heard about someone screwing up was when they at a cake...

  12. California Intervention program question

    Yellowbird68 replied to Quickstepper's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Hey there, I'm not sure about CA but here in FL. They can make exceptions if you are stable on a controlled medication and it's not your drug of choice. It's a whole process with your prescribing...

  13. Can I fight the DOH /PRN

    Yellowbird68 replied to 1981flower's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Someone in my group is in pharmacy school, their test in pharmacy school was positive and that's why they have a contract. They aren't even a licensed pharmacist

    Yellowbird68 replied to Universe93B's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Just sharing my experience.... I did not have to do rehab at all, my contract is 2 years. (I have 23 days left) I was able to work after I took a substance abuse course that's a few hours, then I was...

  16. Monitoring agencies and “professional programs"

    Yellowbird68 replied to Universe93B's topic in Nurses Recovery

    My eval was in person, had a urine and a hair test at eval. I took an expired RX of mine a day or 2 before then had a medical emergency at work. I was recommended a 2 yr contract. No rehab of any sort...

  17. New grad needing help in PA

    Yellowbird68 replied to Dahlia81's topic in Nurses Recovery

    They do stand to make money from an unfavorable eval.... But this is the only way. You can spend money and try to fight it but most of the time nothing happens and you're right back to where you...

    Hey y'all, I currently have 4 months left of my 2 year contract. I got selected 9/19 for a U drug screen (737675) and I completed it the same day. While at the lab the guy did have some computer...

  19. Affinity issues with lab sample

    Yellowbird68 replied to Yellowbird68's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I called the testing manager for my program, she said that she sees the COC number in the system, so I'm all good on their end. I guess they just didn't mail it out as fast or something random I'm not...

  21. What can a good lawyer do in these cases?

    Yellowbird68 replied to santi_05's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Most people will say a lawyer won't do much or anything at all. However I had a very expensive, well known lawyer on my case. I took some expired RXs. Everyone in my group has a contract of 5+ years,...
