DR BILL I have been clean and sober for about 7 months and on Friday decided to have myself a tall bud light can 24 oz.. I ate well and drank a lot of water after .Then on Saturday I did the same thing no more no less and on Sunday once again... I did drink a lot of water and eat a lot I take milk thissel if that helps I don't know my last drink was on Sunday about 7pm and on Monday my po showed up and did a swab test at 9;30pm 16 panel? Do you think I might be OK?? I'm freaked out like anyone should be... I weigh about 170 pounds and are an active person I did drink a lot of water?? Hope that you can help my nerves a little good for bad.. Thank you

Sorry but if you were "doing so well" you wouldn't have done the one thing you are prohibited from doing. I'm with J_9, get ready for the fail. But then... I think deep down inside you were trying to fail. You knew what you were doing three days in a row so why are you freaking out now. Own up to it.

16 panel? That one is new to me, but no matter... I'm no Dr. Bill, obviously... I have found oral fluid testing ranges for alcohol average "6-12 hours", "12-24 hours" and "24-36 hours" average... not very helpful, I know. I'm sure a great deal depends upon the usual...

I, personally wouldn't take any bets on you passing... but you might have cut it close enough to get lucky... sorry to hear about the relapse after 7 months of sobriety. That just sucks.
