Alcohol
My probation officer wants me to come in for testing tomorrow but I had two beers at my cousin's wedding three days ago. I know I wasn't supposed to drink but it was a family celebration and I thought I'd be fine. Now I'm freaking out about whether it will show up on the test. Been researching detection times at https://unitedrecoveryproject.com/rehab-blog/how-long-does-alcohol-stay-in-your-system/ and it seems like I should be clear by now. Anyone know if three days is enough time for alcohol to completely leave your system?

Three days should be enough for a standard urine test, but ETG tests can detect alcohol up to 80 hours after drinking. Depends what kind of test your PO uses. Next time just tell them ahead about family events - most are understanding if you're upfront. The stress of hiding it isn't worth violating probation. Hope it works out for you
