The problem in your case is that the immunoassay isn't picking it up, so in there mind there is no reason to use MS.

So if you want you can call quest for them and ask what test they should order, so that it just bypasses IA and uses MS. IME most medical assistants are pretty god damn clueless as to what test they need to order and routinely **** things up.

Also next time you see your doctor I'd tell them how she was treating you and how she was acting. That shit is so frustrating, those MA's are such snooty bitches alot of the time and just love judging patients and acting like they know everything.

I’m sure it can be done, but I’m not aware of a drug screen that starts with mass spectrometry.

Perhaps hook effect is creating the EIA issue.
