    Stupid and scared
    Ok I'm 5'6 220 lbs. On Thursday night I guess technically Friday morning as I stopped drinking a little after midnight, I drank an 8% beer, two 5% twisted teas and a 40 oz Pabst blue ribbon. I had an EtG today, Monday, at 10am. So only about 57 hours sober time. I drank lots of water all day and night Sunday also took niacin and vitamins that boost metabolism. Anyone with experience think I have a chance of passing?

    Zero chance... you will fail on dilution... and a fail is a fail...

    The issue, if you drink too much water, that will show up in test also, and be a fail.

    The nician and other things do nothing, no idea why you are taking them, if anything, they can add to issues in testing.

    But there is a slim chance of success. The only thing that cleans the system is time, anything else is just false information

    How would you know? All your threads are asking if you'll pass your ETG tests, and now you're suddenly an expert?

    Yes, his math is wrong. With that amount of alcohol, he will be rid of EtG, and he will test negative.

    And, again, on what accepted calculations do you base your answer. This is not an issue of opinion but fact. If you are going to answer, you need to be able to back up that answer with facts..

    I was taking the pills to speed up my metabolism, to burn up the alcohol a little faster.. but I did pass, and it didn't come up diluted either

    Really? Experts say it can take up to 80 hours for the average person. Others say it's closer to 5 days.

    Like I said in one of your threads, it does depend on the person, their metabolism, etc, but to definitively say that the OP will pass when he's well under the 80 hour mark, is not accurate. You can't say that with certainty, even though you passed your ETG test. You're not the OP. You're very different people. Your metabolism isn't his.

    In other words, no one on this site can tell the OP that he'll definitely fail, or definitely pass, it's a crap shoot. He's on the cusp. This test could go either way.
