| First of all "thanks" for the plethora of pertinent information! I have been reading and practicing with home tests since June 27th. Background info. Female - 30 - 5'2" - 125lbs Daily BT's for years (until June 27th) Fast metabolism I have a pre-employment urine test on Monday the 10th at LabCorp. I took the exact test when first employed, but, I took off a year for schooling and now I am returning so, I have to repeat the test. I have a few last minute jitter questions for you experts. I have basically found that this method is working for me (a combination of N2 and S2's methods) Wake and go 4 hours before - drink gatorade 16oz w/ 4 asprin and 4 tums drink gatorade 8oz every 15 min. for one hour go go go go go drink 4oz every 20 min. to replace fluids 1 hour before test - take 3 asprin and 3 tums and B2 finish the last of the 64 oz of gatorade and take the test. First test was with no extra stuff and first of the day (failed) Next two I followed the recipe above at two different times and days (passed both) OK, now to the questions... 1. I have been eating red meat morning, noon, and night for 5 days and taking creatine (one heaping teaspoon)... is there a way to overload on creatine that the test might pick up? Basically, am I ingesting too much creatine? 2. There are only 2 LabCorp facilities in this city and at times there might be a wait.....should I still be drinking every 30 min. if there is a wait? 3. According to LabCorps website, there is a 24 hour turn around time for results on a 9 panel test...my test as a 10 panel....does this make a difference? Thanks..... and don't ever forget to stop and smell the flowers...life is just too short ![]() |

| Don't worry about too much creatine from the meat. If you take creatine supplements you will no you have taken too much when you get the hershey squirts. Just do what you did to pass the home test and try to get to the lab early. |

| Thanks 1toke! I looked at the calendar and realized it has been since Jun 23rd clean...and will remain until confirmation! Unreal how many people chance it...IMHO that is not wise. Do you have any idea about the drinking while waiting question? I fill out employment paperwork first (insurance, etc.) and then go to take the test..then go back and return my confirmation of taking the test. It is uncertain of the exact timing of the test and wait. (I know between 8:00 and 9:00am) Thanks for you help! Beav. |

| Bring your drink into the test facility and continue to drink at your controlled rate until they ask you to stop or control your fluid intake. Just act dumb and say you just wanted to make sure you could pee when you arrived so you are drinking fluids. You can also say the employer told you to drink fluids. I get that one a lot. |

| I think you should be fine with your plan. If you have doubts, about 3 hours before the test, treat youself to a supersized McDonalds French Fries with added salt. It will make eating the salt tastier. Remember, you will be almost 2 weeks abstained when you test. That is a good amount of time. Test yourself this weekend. Test yourself using your first pee of the day, if you fail, test yourself after drinking 16 oz of gatorade. I'll bet you pass that one. If you do, then you should be able to pass the employer test with your plan. Good luck. p.s.: I really like a person who does her homework before posting a question. Nice job with the research. |

I will post test results and follow up with my experience Monday and the final test conclusion. ps- I love conducting research THANKS!!! ![]() |

| Creatinine levels People with kidney disease....can have unusual creatinine clearance and thus an unusual amount of creatinine in their urine. some people have too much creatinine in their urine and not realize it, there is an upper limit on the test for creatinine if checked. Tests that go to GC/MS are a bad thing for people who dilute. Eating protein like red meat will only slightly increase creatinine levels. There is no significant variation between vegatarians and armavors, so the effect protein has is little. Sexual activity also raises creatinine levels. Regards |
