My Doctor Wants to Drug Test Me?? Help?

Question by : My doctor wants to drug test me?? help?
Okay, so here is my background info, i am perscribed to Klonopin, for stress, and was recently taken off of percocet for multi-level degenerative disk disease. My doctor ( and i live in Tennessee, don’t know how laws differ from state to state) wants to drug test me and i have no idea why, other that to check my medication levels in my body since some people do abuse klonopin. However, I smoke pot, and i am not going to stop for this new doctor, or anyone else for that matter until I have children. I am a college student who works 50+ hours a week on top of school, and i don’t drink. If i want to smoke a little every now and then the world will not come to an end. I don’t want a failed drug test filed on my insurance, and i cant have her take me off my klonopin, i have heard i will have a seizure, since i have been on it two years. I don’t see why she cant just test for benzo levels and leave it at that. I go to the doctor in less than an hour, and i would like to know how to openly, and honestly discuss what i told you all, and just explain to my doctor that i am an american, and i have rights that i will not let her infringe for the benefit of her practice. I will opt for her to check my klonopin levels, and that is all. is this reasonable, and will she try to stop my klonopin perscription, and if so, what do i tell her to avoid this? by the way guys, i am a very responsible individual, i just don’t want to get removed from klonopin, or i will probably get fired from a wonderful job due to panick attacks, and high stress levels causing me to be a bit**
okay rude people. I am not addicted to klonopin, i have a PRN (if the people calling me an addict are even smart enough to know what that is) perscription. which means i do not take this drug on a daily basis, so lay off the rude remarks
