Hi all✨ Im nearing the end to this nightmare(10/19/19). I’m so grateful to have come this far. I’ve dealt with so much BS ( literally) from the BON. This is just one example: they said I had a positive Temazepam In December 2018. So of course I had t...

I believe everyone has their own opinions. I'm replying just to give you information . If you possess a medical marijuana card/ certificate. That is pretty much a doctor prescribing you medical marijuana. You have to be registered with a dispensary a...

Hello everyone, im coming to the end of my monitoring status with CT BON in a little less then 11 months(countdown!!). I recently had a baby and havent been looking for a job. I have a few interviews lined up and I always get nervous when I have to b...

Hey everyone, I would love some advice on how to bring out my "situation" when I am interviewing. Like, do I come out and say straight out that I had a drug problem, and in recovery? It is so hard for me to say the right words to the person intervie...

I would love to know as well. I am in CT and had to restart probation after completing 2 of 4 years, due to a alcohol urine. I know it sounds like im dumb for asking to have it stopped but, I NEVER had an alcohol issue, and have been in my 2nd order...

Hope this works out for you. Definitely learn from this, as crazy as this is, you will never have to deal with these accusations again ( hopefully)..Good luck hun !!

It usually would state weekly drug screens, or bi monthly screens. I would definitely call, and ask them. Make sure to have your consent order with you for reference, and know what you are talking about. Good luck!

hello, may I ask, how you got this expunged from your record? I still have a little over 2 years left on my probation. I was wondering, like when someone gets a felony and can have it taken off record, can this happen in my situation as well?

I am in CT, and on a 4 year probation. I obviously am having trouble finding a job with a narc restriction. As a LPN that is what we do mostly is push meds. So thank God I found a job, not as a LPN, but working in the home care field. I have been luc...

There are certain levels that the board will except as incidental exposure. This includes hand sanitizer, mouth wash, etc. If the levels of Etg are of a certain level, they will view it as ethanol and that will be a positive urine screen. Speaking fr...
