...worrying about the test that I took yesterday. To make a long story short, here is my situation.

8:00am
I obtained a "fresh" batch of clean urine at about 8:00am yesterday morning. I put it in a plastic container and sealed the lid. (the container didn't have an air tight seal)

9:15am
About an hour later, I poured the urine out of the container and into a non-lubricated condom after I rinsed the condom out with water. I immediately crotched the urine filled condom. I thought I would have to take my test at about noon, but I had some car issues and had to return to my home.

12:00pm
When I returned home, I removed the urine filled condom from my crotch and put it in a bowl of warm water. I opened the condom a few times between then and the test and stuck a digital thermometer in to test the temperature. During each temperature test, the temperature never dropped below 90 degrees. Note: Would exposing the sample to air (multiple times) have a negative effect on the sample?

1:30pm
The testing center is about 30 minutes away from my house, so I stopped at McDonalds and got a cup of hot water and let the urine filled condom sit in the cup until I arrived at the test center. While in the parking lot, I re-crotched the condom and went in to take the test. As I was filling out the paperwork, I noticed that my photo ID was not in my wallet so I had to return home to get it! (I was nervous as hell at this point because I was very concerned about the temperature)

2:15pm
I arrived at my house, grabbed my ID, and immediately headed out of the door. While in the car on my way to the test facility, I put fresh hot water into the cup and put the condom back in the hot water and let it sit until I arrived at the testing facility.

3:15pm
I recrotched the condom, waited a few minutes to let the piss cool, and I went in to take the test. I wasn't observed so I didn't have any problems making the transfer into the testing cup. The tester took the cup, did a temp test, and noted that the temperature was within the required temperature range. (between 90 - 100 degrees)

She said everything appeared ok, smiled, and told me good luck with the job! I felt a GREAT at this point! The fresh urine was provided by an 8 year old (he didn't know why he was pissing in a cup...LOL), so I know it's clean. However, after just reading a few posts on the forum, I am really starting to get concerned about whether or not the sample was "fresh" enough. The color seemed fine and I didn't notice anything odd when examining it in the test cup at the facility.

Am I being too paranoid, or do I have a legitimate cause for concern?

Thanks in advance for your info!
