    Can I pass an ETG after 44 hours from last drink?
    I am a 125 lbs female. I drank 3 glasses of wine and 1 beer Saturday night starting around 8pm stopping around 1 am. I went skiing all day Sunday and drank a lot of water from then until now. I took my ETG test at 11pm Monday night and I am worried sick! This is my first drink I have had since the initial DUI incident and don't know what I was thinking. I am half way through my Alcohol education course and lapsed. I need to just stay away from alcohol and people who drink it period! I will never do that again! Please let me know your thoughts,. will I pass do I have a slim chance?

    Hi there!

    Well, I'm sorry to give you bad news, but most probably you won't pass the test. The window period of EtG test is three and a half days... However it may depend on the test's sentitivity (there are three types of EtG), considering that those which are very sensible may detect even the alcohol from a cleaning product.

    It also depends on your metabolism, how well your body processes alcohol. My advice is to sleep a lot, to drink high amount of water and to eat at least 3-4 meals/day.

    The question was in April... I'm sure she's faced whatever it is that was going to happen.

    Nice attempt at spam too.
