Hi and thank you so much for this query. I am sorry to hear about your battle with pains. Hope your pain medications have been helpful.

Urinalysis is often done to make sure you are taking the drugs yourself and not handing them to people who don't deserve to use them. If for real you have not been taking them this will reflect in the remaining stock of pills. You simply need to explain this to your doctor and not get worried with what the results show. If your pills are missing, then you will need to answer questions and tell the doctor where the pills you didn't consume went to. Please, do not get worried about what the lab will turn out to be unless there is something going wrong some where.

I hope this helps you and provide a way forward addressing this condition. The truth, backed by your medications is enough.
I wish you a good visit to your doctor today.
