Drug Tests

Recommended Posts

Alright so here's my dilemma:

 

I smoked 4 days ago and have to take a test by Feb. 3rd.  I'm looking at a 16 day time table from my last use.  

 

I'm 5'9, 160 lbs, work out a lot and have a strong healthy diet.  I know I can't simply flush it out of my system because it latches on to fat cells and don't want to try the fake urine route.  

 

For those knowledgeable/with experience: Is this a workable time frame?...because I'm nervous as hell.  I know some say it can be out of your system in 6-7 days but I'm more of a habitual/chronic user and probably looking at a 2-3 week timeframe. 

 

I bought a 10 pack testing kit to monitor my progress but was looking to get some opinions and see if anyone knows of good regimes not just the day-of-the-test.  

 

I've been avoiding large amounts of caffeine, fatty foods, am drinking lots of water and milk, eating a ton of veggies/fruits, and working out daily with a post-workout steam room.  Any advice appreciated and yes..I know I should cut back/not use but it's helped me out tremendously with my Crohn's and with lowering my alcohol consumption.

If you follow that routine I would give you a 100% chance of passing.  I know people that have passed in only a 3 day turn around but like you said the more you smoke the longer it will take. 

 

Yep, the nice thing is that I know the time frame and can monitor it from now until the official tests with the home kit.  

 

It's just a bit unnerving.

I've always said it would take a complete dumbass to fail a drug test you know you are going to have to take.  You got this.

You're doing all the right things, keep it up!

If you still want to be sure drink a gallon of water the morning of the test and pee as much as you can before you go. The result will be "negative dilute" and you will be re-tested but a second negative dilute equals a pass.

You shouldn't need to do that but if you feel the need it will work.

Just a little information here. The bodies ability to process and remove THC from the body is enhanced by the frequency that you use. What I mean is this -  If you are a frequent user, or have been recently, you will shed thc from your system at a faster rate than a none user. In a vacuum, if a frequent user (ignoring all prior THC buildup) and a non user were to smoke a bowl, the frequent user would be able to pass a drug test much sooner than the previous none-user. 

 

Granted, if you are a frequent and heavy smoker you may have a lot to pass through your system so this can take a while, but generally a frequent smoker will be able to pass a drug test in under the 30 day time table where as someone who only smokes infrequently would have a tougher time passing.

Sucks for us workin people having to take drug tests and all when it is ruled unconstitutional and invasion of privacy for people on unemployment to take it.

 

Yes well, one is government invasion and one is private business practice. There's a difference.

Isn't it all pretty dependent upon how/what sensitivity or threshold level the test is set for?

 

Some zero tolerance jobs (like the military) employ a pretty sensitive test standard that has detected THC upwards of 30-45 days after use.

 

And there's always the Whizzinator:

    • Ideally Bryce and the other starters should get at least a full quarter and an argument could be made for 2 full quarters given how they've played early in the season the last few years.
    • A rookie that has never played a snap and a proven 1000K NFL WR are not going to be viewed the same in these type rankings.  And calling draft picks, lotto picks, isn't some new quip I just invented.  take the big 3 Hubbard, AT, insert whatever 3rd Panther you want vs Kamara, Hill, Olave.  Most football folks outside of Carolina are picking the Saints there IMO.    
    • You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.
