A false positive for marijuana can be caused by the following substances:ibuprofen; (Advil, Nuprin, Motrin, Excedrin IB etc)Naproxen (Aleve)Ketoprofen (Orudis KT)Promethazine (Phenergan, Promethegan)Pantoprazole (Protonix)Riboflavin (B2, Hempseed Oil)Kidney infection (Kidney disease, Diabetes) Liver DiseaseDronabinol (Marinol)as well as large amounts of hemp products.
As for legal recourse, you can ask to take the test again, and avoid those substances, if that isn't permitted, you should talk to a lawyer about your options, unless someone has another resource? erowid.org/psychoactives/testing/testing.shtml is a good place to start looking to find an alternative.

Can parent who are O pos have achild with B pos blood?
If one parent is O positive, a B positive child is possible (the other parent would likely be B or AB and could be either positive or negative). If both parents are O positive, a B positive child is extremely unlikely (however, it occasionally happens that someone who THINKS they're O positive is actually something else, so before you start looking for a lawyer I'd have everyone's blood retested).
Why do i test positive for oxycodene when i don't use it?
No. If you don't do a drug then it won't show up. EDIT I didn't see the why. But it is possible if you take certain drugs or prescriptions that it will show up as something else on a test. Just get retested if you think it's false.

Not necessarily but as long as there is a line, faint or not, you ARE pregnant. Considering that you have taken multiple tests, it's safe to say that you're not just getting a false positive. The line doesn't get darker the more pregnant you are.

Don't worry about it; there are more sensitive tests that can positively distinguish between meth and prescription medication, so if you're taking something that happens to give a false positive just let them know and get retested with the more accurate test. Us telling you what you could CLAIM to be taking ... sorry, not going to happen.
Can a scientific theory be incorrect?
"Can a theory be proven incorrect?" absolutely, even after it has been successfully proven a "good scientific theory" (proven as in experimented, documented, tested ect...... )The theory itself can be retested and then also be proven to be incorrect. Such as subtle changes in the environment of which the study was tested can alter the results to be give a true or false outcome. Thus, in my opinion much of the reasoning behind the statement nothing in the World is absolutely 100%.
