I'm all for SVT, it's a good way to tell the difference between
drinking to much water before hand and intentionally
alternating specimen.
Theres a fine line between dilution and alteration,
the only difference is intent, this should be addressed,
numbers is a good way to show intent, but it should be stressed
when labs and MRO's conclude findings.
As it is now there both shoved into the same catagory, and no
one seems to care what the difference is.
How is this reported? I delt with an MRO today and his
attitude was as he could care less, there was little to nothing
for an explaination as to intent, all I wanted to know was how
was this going to reflect on my file. I asked why I was'nt
retested, he told me it was up to the DER.
Why is it I'm the subject here but I have know rights to the
findings? As a driver I've found that we have very little rights
to any medical information held against you, so I'm unable to
change the findings when labled.
I thought you were inocent untill proven guillty, I was'nt given the opportunity to defend my self, and was'nt notified of these
findings untill a week after the DER recieved thier report.
To the point these two lables should be separated and everyone
involved in this process have the right to be informed as
to the gravity of such finding.
