Mike,

When you attend your visa interview you will be found inadmissible as a class A drug addict. There is no waiver available for this. You must remain in remission from any drug use for a period of 3 years in order to receive a Visa. Which means you're looking at June, 2009 being the earliest you can expect to receive your visa. Your only possible way out of this is if you told the medical examiner that you only used once or twice and that it was purely experimental (the law allows for generally one use on an experimental basis). If you did not say that, it is really too late, since the doctor makes the decision, not the Consular Officer. You can only hope to file an Advisory Opinion with the Department of State in Washington, DC. This must be done by an attorney, and it will be hard for you to find one with experience in filing them. That is the only appeal for a Consular Officer's decision, and your only chance of overcoming the 3 year bar. As for the drug situation...yes, it was a very dumb move to be taking drugs before your medical exam, and no, you're not the only one to have made mistakes in this process. I personally don't think you are a drug addict, unfortunately, this kind of mistake can have very serious consequences.

I forgot to mention that as a condition of receiving your Visa at the end of 3 years, you must prove that you have undergone treatment for the drug problem and that you have been clean the whole time (this can be achieved through a rehab program and periodic drug tests).

Don't let the sunshine spoil your rain...just stand up and COMPLAIN!
