Congrats.....

Congrats, How long were you clean for your test? I plan on doing a dilution too.

25 days clean when I took the test.

Ill be testing at the 25 day mark too. Since you used B-12 instead of b2, what was the color of your urine?

congrats bunny. i have a test at the 20 day mark, but prior to that i was good for 8.5 weeks.

arent you so glad it is over? i will be next week. i cannot believe the amount of stress this has caused.

Congrats bunny.

Congrats....

Congrats bunny and good luck on the new job!

Chalk another one up for the good guys.

Thank you all for all of your support and praises. It was extremely hard and very stressful. But I'm so glad that I was able to not only be sober during that time, but being able to pass the drug test on my own.

Just make sure you practice and know what your body can handle and not handle. Nothing worse you detox before taking a UT and you're having huge stomach problems or heart problems because of the vitamins and asprine.

sometimes i wish i was a chick. substituting would be so much easier...

It isn't any easier from a stress perspective.

And "carrying" a hard, plastic, 2oz. bottle in your snizz for any length of time is not as easy or as carefree as it sounds.

it is not comfortable and can slide out.

a condom up there, filled with syn. is not eas ,y and unless you have some big or flappy titties, sticking a bottle under them is not easy either. my cupcakes are of no use to me when it comes to hiding anything. but, i'll take some perky ta-tas over a stash place anytime.

Test weds. told results should be back by monday, w/in 24 hrs if there arent any "problems." and i hear you on doing it on your own. i feel the same way. as much stress as it has caused me, i know i am better off to do this naturally.

practiced last weekend and the asprinE tore my stomach up. i was up at 4:30 am in pain. but i did catch up on my grand theft auto skillz.

wish me well. i had one day of a minor lapse in 80 days after i thought i did not get the job. will be 20 days since that lapse at test time. i have to be below 50 ng, i would think.

testing (-) without any fluid intake on 2nd void of the day (basically, empty bladder, shower, test)

the line is not as strong as control, but is there, and definately not ghost. can be photographed. looks similar to the line killerweed420 posted in his pic. and that is on concentrated urine

with drinking some fluids (like a cup of coffee and 8 oz of juice) i have a strong line that is generally as dark as the contol.

tomorrow i will practice the routine exactly how i will do it weds.

plan on drinking 20 oz of gatorade 1.5 hours b4 the test - and taking some b2, asprine and antacids (not the sodium free kind) my test is late in the afternoon.

can't risk a neg. dilute, that goes to gc/ms. i think i should be OK with just the 20 oz.

i bought some adulteration strips too, that test for creatine and s.g., so, i'll know if my 20 oz of gatorade is a good way to go. i have been eating steaks and burgers like a madwoman and taking creatine supplements.

please keep your fingers crossed for me and think positively, err, should i say, think negative!

does a neg dilute always go to gc/ms, or is that just specific in your case?

dunno. i asked that question elsewhere and was told that a neg. dilute is not a negative, and can be sent to gc/ms.

the employer says that if the test comes back neg. dilute, "the results will take longer" - dont know what to read into that- whether that means a retest, which is generally the case, or whether it means gc/ms. i did not ask.

i thought gc/ms was for CONFIRMATION of a nonnegative, not to flesh out nonnegative results.

but i have read elsewhere that if someone has a questionable line, or a non negative, the lab can send it to gc/ms. OPINIONS?

so i ordered adulterant strips that test SG and creatine.

tested today - 20 oz of gatorade 1.5 hours before the test, and 2 asprin 4 hours before the test. negative, stong line, as dark as the control. here's the picture - http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/l...1_bucket/2.jpg

used an adulterant strip to make sure creatine and specific gravity were good, and they were.

i'll have some ramen noodles tomorrow before the test (hello sodium) and do what i did today. i wrote it all down

20oz of gatorade 1.5 hours before the test and 4 asprin 4 hours before, run my own test with cup and adulterant strip 1/2 hour before i go to the test and then go piss for the bladder cops.

unless something goes really wacky, i think i should be ok. think good thoughts for me.

SensiGirl,

Good luck on the test; I'm sure you'll do well. I completely understand where you're coming from when it comes to the storing issue. And the stress...I would have giant mood swings from being okay one hour and being a nervous wreck the next. Too bad I didn't have GTA4 to release my stress (since it didn't come out during the time.)

Ha! you described me perfectly. i have become obsessed with a frickin' piss test.

I was you a week ago. Believe me, I was feelin' ya. You've been practicing; so you have better odds of passing the test. You'll be confident of passing the test in no time.

going today - wish me luck. did a cup test this a.m. after sipping a bottle of gatorade. passed and creatine and SG was way good.

if i don't pass this i will be devestated because it looks good on the home tests.

If you followed the home tests correctly, then you should be in the clear. I hope things went well with your test. Let us know how it went!!!

see my thread. my only concern is that it comes up negative dilute. someone said a negative dilute could go to gc/ms. i don't think that's right as gc/ms is used for confirmation, not to root out positives. i hope that is the case.

i can't imagine it coming up positive or positive dilute after passing at least 7 home tests, but, i am nervous anyway.

now the wait. i hate this.

When mine came up non negative they did send it in for another test. Im not sure if it was gc/ms or something else. I also thought that only positive results would be sent to gc/ms for confirmation.

FBR or Killerweed do you guys have any insight on this?

everything i have read states that a negative dilute is a negative -not a positive that would be "confirmed"

hell, DOT guidelines do not state that a negative dilute be sent on for another test

now, a positive dilute is sent on for confirmation.

i hate this waiting.

and what was the result, and what were the circumstances? were you using full blown dilution? were you passing home tests?

it was a full hour between the time i took the home test w/ adulterant strip and my test

it was not like i was pissing every 15 minutes before the real test

i have to think i was less dilute.

worst case scenario - i fail and keep my job as a consultant. it is not the end of teh world

i am more concerned that because i am in the education field, the emp. would report a fail to the state licensing board.

i think the only way i would fail is if a neg. dilute went onto a gc/ms, and i could not pass the lower limit.

I don't think there are any rules for going to GC/MS. An employer can send them right to GC/MS if they want and bypass immunassay. There are just different levels for confirmation on the 2 tests. The only reason they don't go directly to GC/MS is because of the added costs. DOT related jobs follow different guidelines but for a standard pre-employement UA the employer can do just about anything they want.
