Only problem is, I'm still not pissing every 15-20 minutes, and it's still not clear.

Do I need to worry about over diluting if I have to keep drinking in order to void clear, as long as I follow the other rules for SG and creatinine?
As long as your creatinine and SG levels are satisfactory, your sample will not be ruled "diluted". Color is hardly an aspect in determining a diluted sample because specimen validity checks are mandatory for all urine samples collected for a DOT drug test. And even samples with color to them can still fall below the acceptable ranges for creatinine and SG.

While doing your dilution practice runs, check your efforts by testing yourself with a validity test strip. That way you can "monitor" your creatinine and SG levels. Do a Google search for drug adulteration test kits.


A faint line still counts as a line. Even if an untrained tech misinterpreted a faint line and sent the sample off to the GC/MS for comfirmation, the sample will still come back as negative.

I was notified Friday that at some point next week I will have to get a Department of Transportation physical in order to operate a vehicle that is over a certain weight. Part of that physical means taking and passing a drug test. Part of me wants to beat this test and part of me wants to be up front about how much of an invasion of my privacy this is. I did not have to take a pre-employment drug test where I work now, but I Rating: 5
