Hello, I dont know where to start. I have been going to a methadine clinic for several years, and I was recently diagnosed with ADHD. I am on 10 mg of adderall twice a day so I know I am going to test dirty at the clinic. I dont want the doctors interacting with each other because I didnt tell the doctor I was on methadone. wha tdo i do?

If you're in the UK a doctor cannot share your confidential information without your permission unless you are a risk to others which you aren't.
