I want to just say that I have been reading all of your posts for quite a while, and although there is a mass of information out there, I am sure that some of you could analyze my situation and give me some good feedback.
Situation:
I am 32, 240-ish pounds, 6'2". Today will essentially be 3 weeks since my last serious smoking. Exactly a week ago, I smoked 2 one hitters out of my dugout. About 12 days ago, I puffed on a joint (about 3 good tokes).
3 days after my obstention from smoking, I took a cheap 5 dollar urine test specifically for Marijuana, just to get a baseline. If there was a line, it was too faint to tell.
About 4 days after that, I took the same cheap test (I had 2) and I got a faint line, but it was there.
About a week ago, I bought 2 tests from CVS, one was for Marijuana, and the other was for Marijuana and Cocaine (they only had one pot test left, so I picked up the other). I took the THC/COC test and I passed. The control line was very dark, and the THC/COC lined were both there, but about 50% faint.
2 days ago, I took the THC only test, it was negative, but a lot fainter than the previous. I am concerned. I was just offered the job today and have 48 hours (including Monday morning) to go to a local lab. I was prepared to take the screening right after the interview, so I took some detox stuff I bought...I understand that they really only mask and force you to drink lots of water, but it also came with complex B vitamins and Creatine. When I got home a urinated, it was like someone dumped out a glowstick in the toilet, so I am somewhat glad the test was not today.
I called the same company they want me to have the screening, but a different location, told them I was an employer looking to screen for some employees, and found that they charge $45 for a drug screening, so I assume it will just be a standard urine screening for the typical 5 drugs. They stated that they supply the test and send it to a M.D. to read.
Questions:
If the THC/COC test both read with the same 50% faint line, and the last time I used Coke was well over a month ago, can I trust the accuracy?
Why did the 2nd CVS test's line read a lot lighter than the previous?
Anybody have some good advise that may help? This job is very important to me, and I do feel that 3 weeks with only a tiny bit inbetween is a reasonable amount of time.
What do you think?
Thanks for any advice you can give me, I don't feel comfortable with QF or a fake penis or anything like that at this point.
