hi. I am a methadone user but clean from street drugs. im being reduced and will probably be off it early next year smile

im thinking of moving to USA, im aware i will have a medical byb their doctors, but i am needing to know, will they access my medical records?

this is worrying for me as my mental health has been bad since i had a misscarriage and my partner leaving me - two 'suicide attempts' (cry for help) followed by a relapse on crack and heroin - id been clean for 10 years prior. Basically i had a massive breakdown, the misscarriage was the trigger and BF asking me to leave. 

im doing really well now but just needing to know - PLEASE, IM NOT ASKING FOR OPINIONS I NEED FACTS. ive tried the internet but cannot find the answer......help please!

thanks, 

Starzle.

    Hi starzle ..Sorry pressed button accidently sooner.

    PLZ seek professional help.. No One here is qualified to offer what u really need. UR letter screams for help.. If u have all the support from home let them know this is UR pain. 

    Ask for help talk to UR GP THERE  is a wealth of help for u just waiting for you.

    many blessings sent UR way.

      Hi the US is very strict and will certainly want your medical information.

      you have to give it if only visiting.

      good luck Ann
