How Could My Kidney Disease Create A False Positive For Cocaine?
UpdatedI have thin membrane nephritis- a chronic non progressive kidney disease where basically my kidney membranes are too thin to filter properly. This causes me to spill up to 1000mg of protein in a 24hr period when "normal" spillage- is 0-8mg sometimes 10mg/dL which can go up to 150-300mg/dL when pregnant. I recently took a drug test and came up positive for cocaine!! Let me be clear, other than 20yrs ago when young and dumb, I have not done or tried cocaine and I highly doubt that is still in my system! I get frequent UTI's and inflamed kidneys/kidney infections sometimes requiring antibiotics such as amoxicillin. I was trying to figure HOW I came up + and saw kidney disease and even kidney infections- can create a false positive! I was not on amoxicillin at that time or for a few months prior. could my kidney disease really have done this? How? The only other explanation is someone pouring it up my nose while I sleep!!!
