Hydration isn't always in your favor. If you drink a lot of water before a test, you'll likely fail to dilution. But at 105 hours you should pass.

I think the main problem here is that you drank when you obviously shouldn't be. What prompted you to do so when you've been clean for a year? Why risk it?

If you need help with drinking, that's something we can help with. If you'd like to talk about it, we can work towards a solution so that you no longer have to worry about testing.

Have been doing well but had a slip. Need to redouble my efforts at recovery. I drank 24 ounces of diet soda about an hour before testing and was peeing pretty good. I didn't drown myself with gallons of fluid. Again a slip hopefully not a pattern . Alcoholism is a tuff disease to treat!

It very much is. I'm not making light of it at all. I've had a few friends and family members of friends that died from this disease. That's why I'm offering support.

You had a year sober, and that's something to be very proud of. What are you doing to help yourself combat this disease? Is there anything we can do to help you further?
