So do you think I will pass based on these answers? I drank tons and tons of water up until my test day. I tested in the morning so that is the only thing I am worried about since they say your urine is more concentrated.

I am not a doctor or have any true knowledge about the testing.

Your guess is as good as mine.

Perhaps if you look through the site some and see the addictions area where at the top of the page it says 'sticky' and the topic is ETG testing,there you might get further information.

Good luck.

Here's your answer -

"The amount of alcohol in the blood is called blood alcohol content or blood alcohol concentration
(BAC). Alcohol is metabolized at the rate of .015 of (BAC) every hour.

For instance, a person with a BAC of .15 (this BAC is almost twice the legal amount when driving) will have no measurable alcohol in the bloodstream ten hours after the last drink (.15 divided by .015 = 10).

With some urine alcohol tests, alcohol can be detected up to around 48 hours after a person has ingested alcohol. With the EtG Urine Alcohol Test, however the presence of EtG in the urine demonstrates that ethanol alcohol was ingested within the past 3 or 4 days, or roughly 80 hours after the ethanol alcohol has been metabolized by the body.

As a result, it can be determined that a urine alcohol test employing EtG is a more accurate indicator of the recent consumption of alcohol as opposed to simply measuring for the existence of ethanol alcohol (as is done many other urine alcohol tests).

With the EtG Urine Alcohol Test, however, the presence of EtG in the urine reveals that ethanol alcohol was consumed within the past 80 hours or so which could mean many hours after the ethanol alcohol has been metabolized by the body."

Drinking as much water as you possibly can in order to water down your urine shows up on an EtG test as just that - an attempt to water down your urine.

Yes, perhaps you should have been drinking the water instead of the beer and you would not have to worry.

I will first say personally I hope you fail. You knew you had a test and drank anyway, so you deserve to fail since you are not following the rules of the reason you are being tested for.

Next of course beyond the test you will have to worry about people who were with you turning you in, someone getting mad and reporting it, perhaps someone took photos and posted them on facebook showing you drinking, there are more worries.

And you start the time from the time the last drink would have entered your system, ( absorbed) not when you drank it) so your time frame is most likely less than 75 hours.

So depending on the levels they will accept for the test, itis a good chance you are going to fail.

Did you pass? Lots of research out there that says that it could have gone either way, but I think you had a good chance to pass...especially if the half-life of ETG is 3 hours as documented in several places. If your level was as high as 800,000 you would have still been ok.

Great! I thought you would based on the articles of research...that dispute the "80 hours" claim. I know that you remember how stressed you were and don't want to go through that again....

In the same boat as the OP. Unfortunately had a vacation for spring break, drank an obscene amount and have a test today (will be exactly 75 hrs). Right off the bat on Monday, been downing lemon water, drinking beet juice and other juicing recipes, milk thistle tablets, dandelion root, and taking a liver tonic (all things I normally do for health anyway). Hoping I pass since this is a test for a job (and unfortunately it is an etg test).
