Because your husband was not screened and you were I would ask up front what her reasoning is and why she did not discuss this with you. It isn't a routine thing if she did not do the same for your husband. Clearly she had some kind of reason, was she maybe thinking your current medications are affecting you too much and wanted to rule out the possibility of other drugs or was she thinking of changing a medication and wanted to be positive there was nothing to counter act it? The main problem for a lot of docs is that when someone is a drug addict they will lie about it, so a lot of people who don't use drugs get offended when doctors want to be absolutely sure before considering any kind of medication change. It isn't a comment on you but on the thoroughness of a doctor. She might be a really good doc, talk it over with her and then trust yourself to decide if this was warranted or not.
