Dr. Bill:
It is Thursday evening. I had about 9-12 oz of wine last Saturday evening, early Sunday morning, probably around 1 am. I am female, 5'2", 34 years old, 156 lbs, and I have had 0 alcohol in the last 6 months, so I assume my tolerance has decreased. So, I gave a UA at about 7 pm tonight, Thursday. If I go back to, say, 10 am Sunday, which I think is probably enough time for my bac to be back to 0, and I didn't even feel a trace of intoxication or headache or even dehydration, though not sure since I'm smaller in stature, but not tiny-tiny in weight, that would be about 105 hours. I am so worried and this was my second-to-last class of 18 and this will ruin everything for me. I could get into why I chose to drink, but we all have our f-ups and this was one of mine. Please, please don't tell me there is a problem that I drank at all because I know that and am already addressing that issue--my question is scientific, not moral. I know I can do nothing so panicking is useless, but I need a bit of peace of mind as I don't function well under stress. Can you give me any or should I prepare to be even more disappointed in myself?
