    ETG test question for anyone w/a similar knowledge to Dr. Bill
    I know Dr. Bill is out until January but if anyone can please help me, what do you think my chances are of passing an ETG test 20.5 hours after taking just one shot that's only 30% (UV brand of vodka) instead of the usual 40% alcohol? This pretty much reduces it to 3/4 shot of standard hard liquor. Thank you so much for any help in advance and Happy Holidays!

    EtG from one drink is out of your system in 24 hours or less. I know from personal experience. Plus it is well documented in medical literature across the net. You have nothing to worry about.

    Thank you, I appreciate that. I knew it was out in 24 hours or less but since I took the test 20 1/2 hours after, I thought I might be cutting it close. I was still 3 1/2 hours away from the safe mark I guess... still a little worried, even though it's been a week and I think they should have the results by now, there might have been a delay because of Christmas

    If you haven't heard, you are probably fine. I had a similar situation and I passed. I had a little over one glass of wine because of the serving glass and alcohol content and passed in that time. I drank water, but not enough to dilute.

    Well since it's been just a week and that's including the weekend and christmas, I figured there's a chance it might take longer to hear because one time on probation they took 2 weeks to notify me of a failed drug test. However I feel better today because my p.o. informed me she's going to take me off drug tests so I guess that means she got the results already...
