Hi, just wanted to share my experience in the hopes that it can benefit someone else. Before I do that though I'd like to thank everyone who has posted before me for all the great info, in particular N2. His dilution and substitution threads helped me greatly.

I recently went in to Concentra for a pre-employment physical and drug screen. I was wearing two pairs of tidy whiteys. In the outer pair I had sewn a pocket on the inside of the taint area. In this pocket was a bottle of Quick Fix 5.7 that had been warmed in the microwave for 13 seconds and had a hand warmer heat pad affixed to it with a rubber band. Plan B was dilution. I had followed N2's guide (the first post) to a tee. Luckily I didn't need to use it.

When I arrived I told the lady I was ready to pee, and asked to take the urinalysis first. After filling out some paperwork and waiting a bit for a total of around 20 minutes I was led to the back. Height/weight was checked, then I was given a cup to pee in. I was instructed not to flush the toilet.

I removed the QF from the pocket and poured it into the cup, then put the empty QF back in the pocket in my drawers. I had to pee pretty bad, so I did that in the toilet. That could have been a bad idea. The color of the QF that was now in the cup and the color of the pee in the toilet were way different then each other. I was kind of concerned that the lady would notice that, thank god she did not! So if you don't really have to go then don't, especially if you have taken a bunch of vitamin B, as it makes your pee bright yellow.

After this my vision was checked, then I was led into an examination room. I was really worried about getting a hernia check, as I still had a empty bottle in my crotch. Luckily the nurse left the room, and I quickly stuffed the empty bottle and my additional pair of undies (with a pocket crappily sewed into them) into my coat pocket. I was home free!

The doc cam in and finished up the exam, which didn't even end up including a hernia exam. Looking forward to starting my new job!

BTW, on my Concentra sheet Unregulated 5 panel and physical were the only things checked.

i'm not sure what concentra is, but during your exam did you have blood drawn? this morning i had basically the exact same experience as you, only they drew 3-5 vials of blood (i don't really remember as i try not to look) and i'm scared they're going to screen one of them for drugs as well. why the hell else would they need so much?
