I had a etg/alcohol test 10 days ago and had wine the evening prior? I have not heard back from the lab. Has anyone failed or passed with having alcohol in their system? Thank you. Really stressed and very stupid!!

What was the test looking for ?
I know alcohol, but was it for any drinking or looking for a certain allowed level ?

Yes it will show up

Was this test done prior to getting a job? Why was the test done? If it's job related, then it shouldn't be a problem because your levels should've been low enough to indicate it had been some hours since the alcohol was consumed.

The test was looking for alcohol. I am not sure what levels, I guess any level. I have not heard anything. How long does it take for results to come back? Thank you

The only one I had done was when I was hired on at the nursing home, and it was just to make sure I hadn't been drinking before I came to work... and that came back immediately. Otherwise, I am unsure. Sorry I can't be of more help.
