Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX

Thanks for writing to us.

Blood tests- FBE,ESR,TSH,EUC/LFT GLUCOSE,LIPIDS/HDL AND VIT D will not show methamphatemine(speed).
And even if any specific test for meth ordered, it is very rare chance that it can come positive as in blood test it can be detected up to 1-3 days after last intake.

Hope I have answered your query,I will be happy to help further.

Regards,
Dr.Chintan Solanki.
