Other causes of failed PEth test for alcohol abuse?

I am in Atlanta, Ga. I have had 3 false positive tests. I have had to do hair follicle and nail tests to prove that I haven't had any alcohol consumption.
In 2 of the 3 times, I had just finished working 4 days in a row. At my job site, we use hand sanitizer ALL the time.
The last result was 30ng/ml. I had used Orange essential oil on my wrists.
This test is not accurate. It's sensitivity is ridiculous.
I frankly detest the USDTL. I hate the finger stick test.

Here’s one for you....my program (Virginia HPMP) won’t accept nail or hair testing in place of or even as a supplement to blood PEth. Why?

They say, “because those tests aren’t positive enough.” Allow me to translate....”positive tests keep us in bidness.”

Follow the $$$, folks.
