Well Iam going to test in few days, I have been smoke free for over three weeks now, but I am going to do the dilution method as you suggested. I already take a strong multi-vitamin daily anyway, that seems to make my urine fairly yellow. I have begun taking my creatine supplements, that gives me 5g per serving daily. And I am doing a test run dilution today and using my home test strip to see. How much aspirin do I need to take? And why do I need to take aspriin again? See I have a stomach disease and aspiring really makes me sick, so I don't want to have to take it unless absolutely necessary. Can I just use my multi-vitamin, lots of water, and take my creatine supplement daily? And will having too much creatine in my system be a cause for concern, because the dilution method calls for only 20mg, but I am taking 5g daily. See my home tests are already coming up slightly negative (faint line) with my first morning urine, I am excercising every day to try and burn out what is lingering, or should I just be lazy for the next couple of days to start storing fat? See the website isn't specific on somethings. And I am relying on this job, because my unemployemnt runs out. I would rather have then make me re-test for my urin being too dilute than to test me negative, because I am not sure what the hopital cut off level is (that is where I am doing my test) either 50ng or 20ng, and my test strips are coming up faintly for 50ng. I have done lots of research about it, but am not sure what i should do in my specific siutation. OS I am hoping you can shed some light on these questions and help me do this right! Thank you so much Higher Logic!
Aspirin is a "smoke screen" of sorts, which helps to produce false-negatives. You can bypass it if you're senstive to aspirin.
You've been smoke-free for 3 weeks, so you're already in good shape. I would also stop exercising a week before the test so your body can build new, clean fat cells to override the THC-saturated ones. And taking the creatine supplements now is pointless, it's only required the day before/of the test. You could also add potasium to the mix.
Don't forget to start giving your urine sample midway stream, and only give enough to meet the mark on the cup.
Just make sure you have the following:
-Water -Gatorade or Powerade -Aspirin (which you can skip, but you might even want to cut down on the dose if possible) -B-Complex Vitamin (B2) -Rolaids
Switch between Gatorade/Powerade and water during the day-of dilution process so increase your sodium levels.
