    Drank on 3 different days. Will I pass EtG?
    Hi this one is for Dr Bill because he seems to know his stuff. I'm 22 years old 185 lbs 6'2". I drank 9 beers from 11pm to 4 am on Wednesday. Then on Thursday I had 2 beers from 10pm to 1am. And finally on Friday I had 4 beers from 10pm to 2am. All day Saturday and Sunday I drank water heavily. I'd say 2 gallons each day. My EtG test was today (Monday) at 8am. My sample was pretty diluted as well. I'm not a big drinker except for this weekend. I'm very active. And in the past I have passed an EtG within 36 hours drinking 5 beers. What do you think my chances are for this one. I'm kind of stressing it.

    Each sequential drinking session is timed separately. EtG is not cumulative and eliminates at a standard rate, similar to alcohol.

    Therefore, the Wed consumption is past detection regardless of amount consumed, as are the Thurs. and Fri episodes due to low consumption v. time.

    Please let us know the results.

    Thanks DrBill. You helped put my mind at ease. Looking back on my question it may have been 5 beers instead of 4 I wasn't really counting at the time. Will it make much of a difference? But I will let you know how it goes. I should know by Thursday at the latest.

    Makes a difference but doesn't bring within range of detection.

    So I passed. They haven't said anything to me and no news is good news. If it was dirty I would have known 1-2 days afterwards. So thank you for your quick informative answers DrBill. It kept me from freaking out all week.

    Thanks for your report. Do you happen to know the cutoff of the test?

    I want to say its 100 but I can't be for sure on that. I can't remember the name of the lab either.
