Ite so here's the deal:
To start the process of getting my licence back I have to undergo two medical exams. The first is a blood and urine test, the second is a psychological evaluation and urine and eye vision tests.
I have read online and have been told that blood tests can detect alcohol for up to 4 weeks (28 days), one site said 14-28 days. Somewhere it was commented that this is with moderate-heavy drinking.
I have 20 days until my blood test. Yesterday, being the fool that I am, I consumed about 1.5 small plastic glasses of mixed alcohol. So tops, maybe a small plastic cup worth, something like 180-200 ml, of hard liquor.
Now I am stressing out that this will show up on the exams... I am 8 days off schedule. The letter I received said that they recommend moderating alcohol use and abstaining from drugs. Previously I was comfortable knowing that I have no drank in a whole month prior to this, so was confident I would pass with flying colors. Now I'm stressing out..
On the moment I thought I could throw it in that I had two glasses of wine 3 weeks prior. But now I realize that this was a bad judgement call on my part.
My question is... will it even show up on the test? 200ml seems like a very small ammount, and first drop of alcohol I've had in at least 5 weeks. Should I be worried?
I also have the option of postponing the exam, but this will cost extra. Should I maybe do that?
