I took around 1 mg of Lorazepam last Wednesday and Thursday night for sleep problems. I have a drug test coming up this Friday morning, which is about a week since my last dose. Will the test likely come up positive, and is there anything else in my medical history that might affect the test results?

I have had a constant burning sensation around the entryway to my anus for 2 1/2 years. I have seen several doctors, including specialists and therapists, but no one can figure out the cause. The burning persists despite treatments like injections for internal hemorrhoids and using Monistat. What could be causing this chronic anal pain and what further investigations or treatments should I consider?
