They have to do a specific test for drug related things in your blood.
They won't go through lists of test for the fun of it, they will do the ones that are needed only.
So, they won't check for THC or any chemicals related to marijuana.

welcome to healthcaremagic
theseare nothing but addictive drugs and do no good for health
your blood test for any problems with medicine may not detect any thing regarding concreta unless they are specifically asked to test for it which depends on you
but the addiction by itself can lead to various medical problems
