Absolutely not. They would need a blood sample. They'll probably be able to tell that you've been smoking something though, but not what exactly...

If you're feeling sick maybe you could quit the weed for a bit. I'm also guessing that if you're going with your Mom then you're still young-ish, in which case you probably don't know that weed can increase the probability of you developing mental health problems by up to 400% if you're a regular user. If you already knew that, I'm sorry for patronising you.

Good luck at the doctors! And get better soon

Yep, you're fucked, I advise you to confess to your mum before the X-Ray.

no not from an xray.in a hospital setting maryjane is usually detected from a urine sample ,blood is usually used for alcohol testing but either way drug testing isnt automatically done on either unless the doc orders it. and the doc will have no reason to order drug testing unless you are acting all frwaky or something.they will only take blood to check a white count maybe so dont freak.just act like a little sick puppy and go with the flow.

A good doctor can see that you smoke from a chest x-ray (contrast in the lungs), he cant, however, see what youve been smoking! lol smoke is smoke as far as the x-ray is concerned (and i know because i have had to take my share of chest x-rays)

It sounded like you said that if you smoke weed sometimes your pupils dialate and your eyes become bloodshot all the time.

"hey man, your eyes look red, you ok?"
"nah, I'm fine. I smoked a joint two months ago"

at your age an xray will show shit all. Keep huffing and come back when you're 50. Then you're fucked.

Besides I think the smell will give it away long before any tests
