    Chances of passing my EtG test after ~60 hours?
    Hello, I'm in a bit of a pickle, and any and all advice would be appreciated. I've already read MANY other similar topics, questions, studies, and articles, and have gotten a good idea of my predicament. But I'd still like to start my own topic.

    I'm a 255 lb. male with an average metabolism. I drank a 6 pack of heavy beer a week ago Saturday, 7 beers the following Sunday (from early afternoon to late evening), and 1 can of 8.1% malt liquor at 1 AM on Tuesday morning. I gave my urine test at 2 PM Thursday afternoon. Assuming it took 2.5 hours for my BAC to go to 0 on Tuesday morning, that leaves 57.5 hours from then to my urine test.

    I took creatine 14 hours before the test and diluted my sample (but not drastically, I only chugged water the night before and the day of). My job is physically intensive and I sweat A LOT during the day. I ate a meal about 11 hours before the test.

    How good are my chances of passing?

    Other notes: The urine hasn't been sent to the lab yet. By the time it gets sent to the lab, 5 or more days will have passed. Could I use this as a legal defense in case the test comes back positive? The test is for probation.

    DrBill is no longer answering questions on this site or on any other.

    Probation means no alcohol.

    Oh well that's a shame. Anyone else with knowledge of my question that would like to help me out?

    And yes, I know probation means no drinking. I'm not going to drink anymore until my probation is over, this incident has taught me enough.

    That 5 more days will not get the alcohol out of the urine sample as it is not being utilized by your body, but rather just sitting in a jar. Therefore, you cannot use this as a defense for testing positive.

    I'm sorry you are in this predicament. I hope you've learned your lesson.
