Faint Lines in Test Area

Greetings,

*Stopped 1 week before test
*Day of Quest Lab Test
-I downed:
-1/2 gallon of water
-1/2 bottle of crannburyjuice, (32oz)
-1/4 bottle of Gatorraid. (64oz)
-5 to 7 B2 pills

I took several tests and they all showed a very faint line. My question is this. I took one more test before I went to the lab and it was very faint. When I got back from the lab I tested again (faint as well). What do you think the chances are that I pissed negative at the lab in this circumstance? I voided 4-5 times afterwards (1.5 hours after lab test) and tested positive.

Also, when they check on a Saturday, shouldn't my employer know the results today (Monday)?

Anything that shows up faint would be considered a positive test.

If your saying that a faint line means you have tested positive for THCA then you are wrong. Home test kits are very reliable and just because the line is faint means nothing. I have tested my up to date batches of Quick Fix synthetic urine and obtained a faint line.

CTGanja, if you were getting faint lines before test time then you should have been ok for the lab test. Did you remember to raise your creatine levels before test time? The only worry I have for you would be a negative dilute.

I didn't say home tests were unreliable....but oookay! He specifically said he tested positive when voided 4-5 times after the important test.

Wouldn't you think if he tested positive after the fact....just maybe it's possible he also tested positive when it really counts?

So, if it's faint at the lab, it's negative. Gotcha.

Yea, I really didn't understand a positive test result after 4-5 voids. I would think that the more you voided, the more diluted each void would be. Thus, keep the THCA concentration below test cutoff levels.

Burnttoast, do you have any insight on this?

The reason why the person tested postive afterward is because he voided out all of the fluids that he took in.

Remember now - he stated he took "several" home tests before the "real deal" . So the total amount of voids (between the time of his dilution regime to the time he tested positive after the "real deal") add up to more than 4-5.

It must be understood that dilution techniques (in any configuration) are only temporary. Once all of the fluids consumed had all been urinated out (as it obviously happened in the O/Ps case), a "dirty" donor will resume testing positive for THC because the bladder is replenished with fresh THCA-laden urine by the kidneys.

Lesson? When utilizing dilution techniques and testing yourself several times before the "real deal", make an effort to replenish the fluids that youve voided out for your home tests before going to the test site.

Sorry for the confusion- here's what happened:

1. (9am) I tested negative (very faint lines) 4 times before my test. During this time I drank, pissed, tested, & did it again

2. (10am)The last test before the lab I tested negative (very faint line)

3. (10:20am) Took test at quest

4. (10:40am) Came home to piss and tested I tested negative (very faint line)

5. (12pm) I tested positive (no test line)

I understood you. Again, youve tested positive at 12 PM because youve voided out all the fluids youve taken in from earlier.

Thanks for clearing this up, I guess that weeks vacation to Jamaica had my brain a little foggy.
