It means you smoke a LOT of weed.

Getting a result in nanograms per milliliter means they put your urine in a testing machine. First they put the urine in an EMIT or ELISA system. This tech just looks for cannabinoid metabolites in your urine, so 517ng/ml means you smoke quite a bit of pot--the machine won't even show you as positive until you break 50ng/ml, so you're ten times the minimum.

The next test if you flunk EMIT is GC/MS. This machine can segregate metabolites, so they look for one specific one--the metabolite for delta-9-THC. Therefore, the cutoff is quite a bit lower--if you've got more than 15ng/ml of delta-9-THC in your sample you fail. If you have 517ng/ml of delta-9-THC in your sample marijuana isn't your problem; dying from smoke inhalation is.

What does Tylenol 3 show in a urine 2 panel urine test for cocaine and marijuana?

No, it does not. If they are only testing for marijuana and cocaine, the drug will not show up on testing as either because the main chemical in Tylenol 3, codeine, is an opiate. neither cocaine nor marijuana are similar to codeine in any way. if however, they are testing for all drugs, then it will most likely show up as morphine or codeine. if you have a valid prescription for such medication, you will have no problem taking the test.
