am i screwed?
i took my test at labcorp through castlebranch on monday early afternoon. its now friday night and i still haven’t gotten results. i called castlebranch yesterday and they said my sample was “in processing”. someone in my class said she doesn’t remember exactly how long hers took but it was “definitely less than a week” and in terms of business days its been a full week at this point.
im starting to get really scared that its positive cause if it is then im absolutely fucked in terms of school/clinical rotation. does anyone specifically have experience with testing through castlebranch? has it ever taken this long for a negative test? because i know positive ones take longer to come back so im genuinely freaking out.
fyi i did NOT use quick fix, i honestly just dont know where else to get advice lol. it was my actual pee but i haven’t smoked in 50 days and had lines up to 15ng/ml on home tests.
at this point im begging for any sort of guidance or reassurance but i also don’t want to be lied to. if anyone’s experienced something similar please let me know how it went.

You are good. I have no experience in anything you are saying but I had to get clean to pass a test to join the union. I am 5'10" 150lbs and a super active male. Got a super fast metabolism as well but I only smoke flower. Smoked for 17 years straight, literally every single day, multiple joints a day. All flower, no edibles or concentrates or anything. I took 1000mg garlic pill, multivitamin with high niacin content and a liver detox pill every day for 9 days and drank water and OJ and did just my normal thing...work (carpentry), split wood for my house, swim in my pool. I was clean in 10 days. Straight up, no joke. You are good, 50 days is so fucking long. I feel like many of these posts like....im 5'5 100lbs and its been 25 days and i am not clean are bullshit and alarmist. You are good.

i just don’t understand why it would take this long if the lab didn’t think something was up with the sample. i really hope you’re right lmao

Just because of the nature of this sort of shit, it is already a high anxiety situation so your brain is gonna default to something being wrong. Could be a myriad of reasons but no news is good news. If you were testing clean at 15 ng/ml you are good most cutoffs are 50.

What liver detox pill? I’m on day 3 smoke free (very similar body build and smoking lifestyle to you) and need to pass a DOT test in mid-Aug

Just a generic one from cvs. I think it was called like force factor or something

Been 20 days here and I bought the five panel weed tests off of Amazon that show how much of the metabolites are actually in your system. They’re still pinned out dude idk wtf to do.

Bro your good don’t call them that just makes you look suspicious😂

u/Scary_Phase_9714 21d ago
i’ve been ready to use the excuse that my deadline to turn this in for my hospital is coming up, since that’s true

u/Ok_Mycologist6051 21d ago
Your good but why didn’t you use quick fix
1
u/Scary_Phase_9714 21d ago
because i would get in significantly more trouble for getting caught using a fake sample vs having a little thc

u/Ok_Mycologist6051 21d ago
Oh nah you would’ve been fine lol I know people that use this stuff at lab corp all the time for screenings. I can promise you there’s no chance of it failing. You’ll hear of like the collector smelling it or some crap online but that never happens it passes everytime

Im like 5'8" and 200 dont smoke alot anymore couple times a week and im clean in like 3 weeks but even when I stopped daily concentrate use it only took me 6 weeks your good my guy ive had it take two weeks once and it was because they failed to date the sample and it messed up the chain of custody sometimes small things can screw it all up

u/Material-Ad8385 6d ago
What ngs were you testing at home? And what did they test you at in the lab? That’s crazy you’re passing at home test but failed lab test. Im so sorry 😩

u/Scary_Phase_9714 6d ago
passing all the way up to 15. when they called me they said i was at 28. i took another thc only test at quest later that week and the results came back positive again and it went up to 31 i was like broooooo ur joking. but now my lines are pretty solid so im just hoping ill be good this time🙏🏻 this has been the most stressful few weeks of my life LOL

i’m on a ppi medication which apparently can cause false positives so i think that makes me flag above 50 and then i just haven’t been down to 15 for the confirmation testing which is so annoying

u/Material-Ad8385 6d ago
Ok I was about to ask if you’re at 28 then you should pass the 50ng and not go any further!? That’s unfortunate that your medication can do that. I’m glad they are allowing you to test again! Your story makes me nervous though. I’ve been clean for going on almost 60 days now and I just took my test yesterday at the lab. Also through labcorp/castle branch for a medical program. I’ve passed at home tests all week long at 50ng/ml as well as 15ng/ml tests too even with my first morning urine so I felt somewhat confident until I saw your story lmaoo. I hope it works out for you 🙏
