Stoner Forums - A Marijuana & 420 Friendly Community

Ok. So I’m a huge smoker. Next week, I’m going to get a physical (to work for the fucking federal gov)
They didn’t say anything about a drug test, but theyre doing a bunch of other tests on me, so I’m scared.

I will be like 1 week free of weed by the time they test me, but I know its still in my body for sure.
They didn’t say theyre gonna do a drug test. But I’m wondering if what they’re testing… can show it, u know.



Ok
---The blood test

--CBC – complete blood count
White and red blood cell count
Hemoglobin
Hematocrit
Platelet count
Neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, lymphocytes, monocytes

--blod chemistry
Total cholesterol
LDL-C
HDL-C
Triglycerides
Cholesterol/ HDL-C ratio
Blood sugar
Bilirubin
Comprehensive metabolic panel – this includes basis liver function tests (LDH, sgot/ast, sgpt/at, ggt)

urinalysis (dipstick urinalysis)


So am I screwed?
How do u beat a blood test?
Can they do a blood test and not look for THC?
Or is that like default?

If its for a fed job, there is NO QUESTION there will be a drug test of some kind. Even private companies and entities the government gives money to are required to drug test as a req to get the money in the first place.

Two weeks is a decent bet for reg stoners to clear the system. Probably not gonna happen with one week. but ive seen some miracles happen. See if you can delay for another week. if at all possible.

But yeah man, the for sure get tested for drugs work places:
Wal-Mart and The Government. (and maybe if you are gonna handle explosives.)




BTW MAN: thats what this means urinalysis (dipstick urinalysis)

He said he's a huge smoker so 2 weeks isn't nearly enough time to clear his system. It's going to take a good couple of months to get clean.
Wouldn't you be notified if they're testing you for drugs?

thanks for the quick replies

well... i just went to the store and got some ProTox xtreme, thats supposed to clean my urine.

now, i'm about to buy something to clean my blood. http://www.passyourtest.com/perm2.htm


" Wal-Mart and The Government." haha fucking wal-mart. god forbid the old gretters be high

i dunno man. one of my friends is pre-med and she said that dipstick urinalysis is a really old method. i think it is different. she says that they use machines now. haha it makes sense to me, since the govt is so messed up, that they would use the oldest method

also... did u know u get promoted based on time hahaha, not performance?

The more you smoke the more used to and faster your body burns off the metabolites that are detected in a UA. Two weeks for a regular smoker is about the norm. Some people up to a month, but never really much more. One or two hits of pot for a new smoker will almost never be detected either, depending on the type of test. Blood test, always within within a few mins of smoking is pot detectable. But since it sits in a tube with little protein and fat to grab ahold of, it is burnt off quick. within 3days to a week there is no trace. Now, in a UA a regular smoker who stops cold, has a decent metabolism, and eats and drinks reglularly will test clear within two weeks. Mouth swabs are only good for testing for THC within 24 hours of smoking, and using a mouth wash and rinsing the mouth out for a few mins will usually throw it off also. Its why most places dont use them. Makes no sense because they are still highly accurate for other drugs. Except pot.

It is a common misconception that regular everyday pot smokers will take longer to clean the system than non-regular smokers. Ive spoken to lab officials, and doctors on the subject, and also seen it from my own experience. It takes about 3 days for a regular smoker to see a decline in cannabinoid tests that show nano-meters per milileter. 450 nano-meters per milileter of cannabinoid in urine is the high threshold, and some tests in some labs will only start detection at .150. Which for one or two tokes after a few days is too low a threshold to detect.

Yeah, I’m a huge smoker. Plus my metabolism is low. Yup, I’m pretty worried. But I just bought all this stuff, so hopefully I’ll be ok.

“Wouldn't you be notified if they're testing you for drugs?”
I know!
That’s what I’m thinking. Cuz like they are very specific with everything else that they’re testing. Plus they said that some positions require testing and some don’t. but then I wanted to check if mine does , but they didn’t send me that part! Appendix A it was called.
I read that they have to tell u

Btw, if u are wondering what I’m applying for, it’s this petroleum engineering offshore inspector thing

That makes sense man. Cuz I was smoking 24-7, my tolerance was really high.

Wait… I don’t get the blood part.
“But since it sits in a tube with little protein and fat to grab ahold of, it is burnt off quick. within 3days to a week there is no trace.� Wouldn’t they test it quicker? Haha

The 3 day thing makes sense too. that’s when I start feeling normal again.
