Talk to us @meframpton... need some details.

Outcomes vary still. What you’re really fighting is a paradigm predicated on lack of self confidence that then places responsibility for determining if you ever drank on a lifeless blameless test.

The test has problems. We still don’t know precisely what they are. Collecting details here is starting to reveal patterns. Would like to know minute details of your situation before introducing bias.

Private message me if you’d like to talk.

I just found out yesterday that I had a “low positive “ Peth test. I am in a recovering professional program in SC. This completely shocks me as I have been completely sober and under the impression these tests would prove my sobriety not question it. I am in healthcare and all I can imagine is that I use too much hand sanitizer and disinfectant wipes with my job. Since Covid I have been very meticulous in this regard assuming ( obviously falsely) that this extraneous exposure could not cause any problems. I do not know what recourse I have. Does anyone know what is the next step? I have an interview with an MRO and I really have no explanation for a Peth of 53. Any suggestions appreciated.

Tools.. I cannot PM you for some reason. Please reach out to me with your contact info. I’ve had positive 60ng DBS with USDTL. Am abstinent. Had it retested at UTSOM and verified same. Need advice on other testing. Thinking same day blood draw with lab Corp simultaneous going forward. Will have to test every 2-3 weeks for 6mo and certain this will happen again. Please contact me
