My baby born in NJ underwent the state mandatory testing. Got a letter in the mail today stating baby needs to be retested. I'm worried. Anyone go through something similar. Should I be worried? Thanks for any advice and input.

What kind of testing? For what?

like

NJ mandates that newborns get tested for number of known conditions/disorders.

I wouldn’t worry just yet. It might just be a problem with the sample. My niece had to be retested because somehow the sample didn’t work (after retest her results were all normal).

Can’t you opt out? In Illinois you can. I’d just deal with my child’s doctor directly.

Went for a pre-employment drug test yesterday. They never asked me if I was on any medications. I had to ask them and was told "oh yeah, just put any you may think make a difference in this text box." I put Xanax, Flexeril, and gabapentin. All of which are prescribed and used as directed. Now I'm terrified that I should have put ALL my meds, to including my psych meds. I've been sober over 12 years and never touched drugs (just booze) but I'm having a full blown panic attack.
