Would a Standard Medical (Not Issued for Court Prosecution) Blood Detect Drug and Alcohol Abuse?

Question by J.: Would a standard medical (not issued for court prosecution) blood detect drug and alcohol abuse?
I have a very minor problem with a leaky valve, and the doctor wants to do a blood test tomorrow for it. However, I stupidly partied last night with alcohol and vew vicodin pills. Will the panel that the doctor orders indicate any such “abuse”? Thanks.

your cardiologist can test for drugs & alcohol -ask him for the specific tests as they can cause your heart problem to worsen. discuss treatment options when the results are available.
