I have a pre-employment drug test and I'm worried. I'm 6’9 and weigh 250 pounds. I smoked marijuana 14 days ago and did two different THC home drug tests at two different days, both of which came out negative. Do you think I'd be okay if I did my drug test today? The test is time-sensitive and they are most probably doing a urine sample or saliva. I also have an ovarian cyst and have been taking painkillers and birth control pills.

I seem to have a feeling of vibration in my lower esophagus, which I believe could be an esophageal sphincter spasm. I have a history of GERD and reflux, but there is no pain, just occasional quiver or vibration. I had an endoscopy 45 days ago that showed normal results except for some gastritis. What could be causing this sensation, and should I be concerned?
