You will probably pass. Based on your information time from last drink until test would be in range of 66-72 hours. EtG is generally cleared at that time range even following extremely heavy alcohol consumption. The foregoing is based on a 100 ng cutoff. The higher the cutoff the less likely detection.
Do you know the cutoff of the test?

No I don't know the cut off, but the last drink I had was around 6 pm and I have been drinking a lot of water, took creatine, four different kinds of vitamins, eating protein. Everything I can think of. Even exercised today for about 20 min just enough to sweat. I am so nervous.

It says on one of the papers that "urine specimens with a specific gravity of >1.0010 and <1.0030 should be considered dilute and laboratories will suggest a recollection ". If that's of any help.. .

I also made myself throw up at like 3 AM and I threw up A lot. This is gross I know, but it was mostly liquid so I assume that was the alcohol and it burned my throat SO bad. Sorry lol I just thought u should know the details!

No particular consequence. The food and water both aid clearance of the EtG metabolite from your system. Your age and physical condition are also in your favor.
It sounds like you have made yourself miserable over a few slugs of Hennessy?
You should be OK and a bit wiser for the experience. Let us know the results when you get them.

9 shots isn't a few slugs! LOL unless that's not much to the testing facility... Is it?

What are the cut off times for most facilities? Is it usually 100? I am going to a comprehensive testing facility.

Don't know. Probably either 100 or 500. 500 is the recommended cutoff but labs do not follow recommendations.

So 80 hour time span for an EtG urine test isn't accurate?

For the Perfume you sprayed... Zero.
For any Booze you consumed... the depends on how much and how long.

Perfume and hairspray (which I also used and use often) both have alcohol and the test is very sensitive...

EGT doesn't test your hair... it tests your Urine. So if you didn't drink it... nothing should be coming out of your bladder to worry about.

No, the inhalation of hairspray which sometimes has alcohol in it can show up in an EtG test. I know it is for urine LOL.
I've read a lot about the EtG testing and I know a lot about what to watch out for, but I forgot that perfume and anything that basically has alcohol in it can show up on the test if you put it on you. Perfume absorbs through the skin, there is alcohol in foods, which I just happened to have teriyaki chicken last night and come to find out the ingredients in the sauce say there is wine in it, so getting this test done causes a lot of paranoia for a lot of people. I being one of them LOL

Inhailed, injested... its still processed by your body the same way.. through your blood and broken down in your liver and passed through your kidneys to the Bladder.
You are talking fractions of an ounce at most, and most of that evaporates and is dispersed into the air BEFORE it gets inhaled.
I really think you are trying to avoid admitting to the fact that you did actually drink and are grasping straws to try to find excuses for failing.
Listen I eat Italian food ALL the time... we go through a LOT of wine while cooking, like one or two bottles a month and that's without DRINKING any of it... I've never failed random workplace testing yet.

No! Lol I went to the mall and tried out different perfumes and obviously because Im a girl I use hairspray.. . which contains alcohol. I didn't use alcohol at all.. I have just seen how sensitive the test is and how many people get false positives. It even says in some places not to use hand sanitizer, eat things made with alcohol in them, and use perfume. I swear I haven't had a drink. I'm paranoid that I will get a false positive because of these things because the I've heard. Yes I am an alcoholic but this time I really didn't drink. I'm doing this for custody of my child. I wouldn't drink. Look up how many times people have gotten false positives because of these things.
