A member asked:

Does an etg reading of 2,517 equate to absolutely hammered the day of a test? i am asking because i did not have a sip of alcohol but had that reading of 2,517 ng/ml on tuesday at 1pm...i'm so confused?

Levels higher than 1,000 ng/mL of EtG in the urine is considered a “high” positive, and usually is indicative of heavy drinking within the previous day or same day, or even light drinking the day of the test. However, false positive test is also a possibility if you did not have any alcohol intake for several days before the test and you are the only one who know that. Good luck.
