I went on vacation, was drinking pretty heavily, came back and I was required to take a drug test including ETG when I returned the following day. I stopped drinking around 3 a.m. on Friday morning and my test was around 2 p.m. On Tuesday which is roughly 106 hours, I was wondering if that is enough time for me to pass the test. I am a healthy male around 190 pounds

Sounds to me like you are going to have to fail before you will face the fact you have a serious problem. Five whole days of heavy drinking isn't an accident, and its not a slip up, and its not something a person without a serious drinking problem would ever do.

You have a good chance to pass the test but why are you required to take a test, are you under a court order

So what you're saying is that you have no answer, thanks for your opinion Mr. Holier than thou.

Yes, I am ballen

ETG boosts 80 hour window but it also has a fairly high failure rate with false positives and positive negatives.

Yeah I am a holier than thou type... I don't have a court ordered test to worry about passing after completely failing to follow legal orders... and I also don't have the serious drinking problem you refuse to acknowledge. I HAVE been subject to randon workplace testing for 30 years... I do what's required of me and have never failed one or worried about failing one. And I am not under a legal restriction to abstain.

Take a long hard look at you rudeness... and what you did. Time to face the music. I'll sleep well, lets hope you sweat it out enough before you get the results back to see if you can see what's wrong here, since you obviously can't with an answer like that... and here's a hint... its not us.

You're not helping, you're just being an . Looking at your other comments on this site, it seems like you like to be an . I didn't ask about my frequency of drinking and your opinion on it, I asked if I would pass. I'm sure you are a Christian as well, loving your book yet not following it, don't judge people you .

You should pass as the window is approximately 80 hours. However, that is for moderate alcohol intake. You admit to heavy intake, so it's really just a crap shoot at this point.

The point being made is that it appears you have a drinking problem you refuse to admit to. Some of us have lost loved ones to people like you, we are hurt and angry that you feel so cold and callous about the restrictions imposed on you. Maybe it's time for some self inflection and get some help for the very serious problem you appear to have.

Whoever said that I refuse to admit anything? You people judge me like you freaking know me and put words into my mouth, I didn't ask for your opinion on my drinking problem or any morality lessons, thank you for your concern. Also, people like me? You people make me sick, judging without knowing, I blew under .08

You are the one who admitted here to a 5 day drunken bender... ONLY REAL alcoholics EVER do something like that... so you gave us every bit of information needed to make any judgement needed.

YOU don't GET to tell anyone here what or how they can answer any question posted....WE are entitled to give our opinions...if you had taken the time to read the rules you areed to before posting you would have seen that much, and your incessant rudeness on this site acting like what you did was normal or acceptible to anyone legally required to abstain. If you wasn't you would not be getting popped for a surprise test. YOU might have yourself fooled....but you haven't fooled anyone else.

It's going to kill you sooner or later. We can only hope it does it before anyone else becomes a victim of yours while under the influence of anything, since you refuse to even see that you have a serious problem. And if there is one absolute in this universe. People under the influence are NEVER guilty of good judgement.

Hell in the last 53 years of my life I've never had a 5 hour bender much less a 5 day bender.

Hey, if you don't want to listen to what anyone has to say...then don't bother asking anyone next time.

Or people who go to Vegas or New Orleans, or a beer festival. My point is you are a jerk and you are not helping anybody. You are probably a very lonely person otherwise you wouldn't be on here so much, I never said that I didn't have a drinking problem, so you are judging me there. Also you say people like me as if you know my situation. Neither one of you have ever gone out for happy hour, and if pulled over you would have blown .05-.079? If not, congratulations you are 2 great guys or gals, don't break your arms patting yourself on your backs. By the way, you say my rudeness?!? Wow, take a look in the mirror lonely man.
