    Dr Bill100 EtG
    No question.

    I have read all your posts regarding EtG. I made the mistake of thinking I was not subject to this type of testing. I was.

    I am a alcoholic. So no why did you drink etc comments. I drank. I had 18 beers on a Friday. 5 on a Saturday 4 on Sunday within 12 hours of my test on Monday.

    I registered dilute at 250... not intentional. Too much coffee I think. Adjusted for creatine I was at 750... yes 750 less than 12 hours from last drink.

    This seems highly unusual for a reading. From all I have read it should have been in the thousands. I had a about with pancreatitus prior to my drinking if that helps.

    I say this not as a question. It is what happened. Maybe this will help you somewhat in your personal studies of ETG testing.

    Thanks for your information. Actually the quantity (750) is low but not terribly surprising given the stair-step nature of consumption across 3 days. It seems to be consistent with the fact that EtG is not cumulative. It would seem that the 4 beers in proximity should have created EtG above that level, depending on pace of consumption.

    Do you have a copy of the printout? I am very interested in the creatinine reading and if EtS was tested for.
