    Surprise EtG test
    OK so I had a surprise EtG s Test on Tuesday about 3:30. I drank pretty heavily all weekend and had 2, maybe 3 drinks before noon on Sunday (I know its bad). I got about an hour and a half warning and drank and drank and peed two or three times right before the test.. I don't care if its diluted (longer story). It wasn't totally clear but it was pretty light. Do I have a chance as it coming back from the lab that its too diluted to read? That's what I'm hoping for, just not a positive... Been sober since.. and will continue to be. I am very stressed out. Any reasonable help would be good

    You will likely pass but an EtG is not very reliable. They can have as many false positives as false negatives. It matters little now since the test is over and you are just worrying, do not have a drink to settle your nerves. They could always come back and say the test wasn't valid and do another
