The Results Thread

[circasurvivefan]

So I posted a thread on here for help and got no advice (angry face!) but all is well in the end. I actually didn't expect advice since there are tons of threads and no one really knows, I just was freaking out and wanted to do something to make me feel better. Anyway I'm 5ft 11in and 130lbs so I assumed my metabolism was fast enough to get me through it. I was a daily smoker up until 4/20, I took my drug test yesterday so I was 15 days clean. The only thing I did was take some asprin the night before I the test and I drank 3 bottles of water that night and one in the morning. Either way I turned up clean and can now start my internship. Woo hooo.

Hi friendly people!!
So here are some helpful figures to run by you guys and I will repost a follow up. I have been a smoker for the past 5 months, mostly regularly every day sometimes three times a day. I don't generally "work out". I weigh 154 lbs usually healthy as a mule and I have a good metabolism. I frequently take Excedrin Migraine relief on a daily basis as a stimulant.

Anyways since I knew the test was the next morning I started by taking 15 250mg Niacin pills and drank three 2 liter bottles of water and did some heavy reps throughout the day. I lost a lot of sleep and got real itchy, but these were the least of my worries.

I had bonged a gram, at least, the day before my test. With all of what I did to prepare I accidentally gave them the first piss of the day. Labcorp sent me the results were POSITIVE "Carboxy THC GC/MS Conf 171 ng/ml." I think the cutoff is 15 ng/ml.

So I demanded a retest because this is obviously important to me to pass. It's been about a week without smoking except for one resin hit a few days ago and yes i did get high. Since I quit I've been averaging about 10 niacin pills a day maybe less. PLENTY of water and a days worth of cranberry juice watered down so it lasts longer.

Is there any way to tell if 171 ng/ml is a high level? Should I change my diet? I don't eat sugary foods it's part of my diet. I'm prescribed medications so they showed up too so I'm not totally worried about them checking creatine levels (or should i be?)

I plan to continue this diet of cranberry juice, plenty of water, and niacin until the next test.

where did you get your info that cranberry juice and niacin were important?

Cranberry juice as a diuretic and niacin to supposedly "flush" your system faster...
Do you have any better suggestions that I could get at a drugstore?

what does a diuretic have to do with THC metabolites in your system?

I passed my UT by delutting my urine. I was sober for 25 days when I took my UT.

A diuretic will make your body rid itself of fluid. It will naturally dehydrate your body. In the short term, you have more than usual urinary output, in the long term, it dehydrates your body , like alcohol, caffinated products, etc.)

that's right but what part of that helps a person pass a drug test?

[hammercloud]

From what I understand diuretics are important to dehydrate you as stated above, so in turn you pee more. And that's one very important goal of dilution. Try reading the "WHY ME" post. I realized it had a lot of important information.

Another thing I read niacin isn't very useful for passing a drug test, but I still use it because it increases metabolism and I want to get all those THC metabolites out of your system fast.
