Asked 6/17/2016 – Austin, TX

I drank a 24oz coors light beer on Sunday night. I met with my probation officer on Thursday morning and had a UA at 10 AM. Not sure what type of test was performed, Etg or regular testing. It was sent to a lab. Even if it was an Etg test, would it show up still? It has been 82 hours that have passed.

Answer

Anxiety is useless and your worry is irrelevant. You can’t un-drink the beer, and the test will results will be what they will be. You have no control over the situation at this point. If the potential of a probation violation causes you stress, you should ask yourself these questions BEFORE YOU DRINK THE ALCOHOL AND VIOLATE YOUR PROBATION. Good Luck.
