I think that a lot of physicians really see drug testing as a fairly simple lab test when, in fact, it is not at all.
I think it's a miserable way to end a pretty good cruise.
It shouldn't be a surprise that physicians do not know how to properly conduct a drug test, because these procedures are not taught in medical school or residency.
It was a surprise to learn just how few physicians use gold-standard practices in their testing. Only a small number actually knew which drugs are detectable on a routine urine drug-test screening panel, and what substances can cause false-positive screens.
We wanted out. It was enough. That was an experience. It was nerve-wracking to us and to everybody else on the boat.
