30 days sans smoke, but failed at home test tonight

[lopokets]

wow, this is my first post but i've been a lurker for quite some time and it seems that some people don't want opposing ideas without getting all preachy and shit about how serious this is freedom,job ,and all that crap. sometimes the good info gets lost in the bicthin. feel like i am reading excerpts of the VIEW. dont know about niacin but i just got a call today stating i passed piss test with dilution,creatine and metamucil. all i know is it worked for me. dont know if it will work for you and THATS THE FACT JACK

Show me your medical license, please.

When your metabolism isn't in gear, your body is unable to rid itself of the THC stored in lipids IN THE BLOODSTREAM.

You'll fail the test anyways.

I'll trust my doctors that saved my life over anything all of you say. Maybe if you bothered talking to a doctor (and a Physician's ASSISTANT doesn't even have the extra 8 years of education required for a PhD so that opinion doesn't count either.)

I'll bet you just didn't follow proper instructions for detoxification. It is a fairly common thing to have happen.

Also, since you apparently know nothing about me, let me give you a hint: with my ectomorphic body type, niacin is the PERFECT solution for UA passing. Why? Because we have very little body fat in the first place in which to store THC.

You may continue talking when you have the same education as my doctors, the very same people that rebuilt my skeleton.

To call them fools shows your absolute lack of education on the subject.

You have completely marginalized yourself and are now summarily dismissed. Buh bye now and enjoy your woeful bliss.

Exactly right. Would you please go into detail about what you did specifically? Theories aside, it's presently my ass on the line right now.

well it helps knowing when the test is. the test was @ 3pm on the 21. i woke up @ 7am pissed and promptly chugged 1 liter of water with 2 tblsp of mucil and i think 2tblsp of creatine powder. i dropped my first piss at around 7:45 followed by another 16 oz of water and 2 slices of whole grain bread(to give the mucil something to work with). i pissed again at 8:20 and notice it was getting clearer. i proceeded to piss on a regular but each time i did i followed with 10 to 16 oz of water. (be careful with the water. too much of anything is dangerous) around 2pm i popped 2 b12(to yellow up the piss) and was on my way to test. after stopping at a Mcd's to piss i arrived at 2:40 and dropped some mid strean piss in the cup. they called me today and asked if i could start mon. mind you i didnt smoke for 2 days prior but b4 that i was a daily user( and i hated those 2 days)as i stated this worked for me, but the only sure way of passing is substitution or complete abstinance. damn what everybody else is saying.

Thanks for the info, lopokets!

I'm like 35 days clean as of now. Haven't piss tested myself since monday night (which was a fail), though. I was gonna take it easy this weekend and test myself maybe on monday and see if I did any good.

I'll keep you guys posted.

Update...

Tested myself again today. It's been one week since I last tested and approximately 37 days without smoking.

Big fat failure.

For what it's worth..there was the SLIGHTEST oh so faint shadow that appeared next to the T on the testing strip, but I can't see it in a photograph.

You be the judge.

Man oh man..I hope this next week cleans me out..44 effing days by then..5'11 175..gimme a break.

Hi, I'm a new member and after reading lots on the internet, reading many posts, and currently testing at home too in prep for a test. It appears to me you are testing for a "natural" clean reading?

I was clean 3 years, got an 8th, then smoked almost every day for 17 days (but only 2-3 tokes, albeit good stuff). Stopped 5 days ago. Yes, currently my first piss of day - fail. But if I dilute (just water/gatorade/vitamins) for just a few hours, I get negative (pass) readings on the home dip test.

My point is have you tried a diluted test? If you dilute well then you should see at least see a negative (pass) result. At least you will be able to tell the difference. The extended directions on my home kit tests say "*NOTE: The shade of red in the test line region (T) will vary, but it should be considered negative when there is even a Faint pink line."

And heck, it seems to me that if all the lab is doing is the same thing (I will have to go to Quest) you are doing, then start practicing for just some dilution and quit sweating it. You might still be hovering naturally just above the 50 cutoff, but it shouldn't take but a little internal liquids to overcome that last hurdle?

Just a thought...

Excellent points and you're right, I've just been testing myself naturally with limited water intake. The next test I take in a few days I was planning on drinking a couple of glasses of water..not enough to be considered true "dilution" like N2's thread, but hopefully enough to spread out the concentration of metabolites without throwing the specific gravity and creatinine levels out of whack.

Is this what you're talking about? A semi-dilution type scenario? I think it was Burnt Toast or FakeBoobsRule that was talking about a given amount of water reduces a metabolite count in a given parts per million or whatever of a urine sample.

What are your thoughts on the synthetic urine being tested for other ailments? As in, during the physical, I assume some pee will be used for drug testing and the rest will be used for protein counts etc. I'm assuming since people have used QuickFix for insurance physicals to hide preexisting conditions that it will work for me in an employment physical.
