Why Am I Being Tested Positive Go Marijuana?
hi my namenfknvf( I am a recovering addict ) i have tested positive for thc stick drug test recently ( march 4th to be exact ). I have tested positive before but i was consuming marijuana. I had been clean for a solid 5 months or more when i recently tested positive. However i did suffer from a U.T.I recently ( maybe 2 weeks - 10 days before testing ). before i knew i had a U.T.I i was taking pain relievers not knowing why my stomach and bladder was hurting. As the pains progressed i went to a clinic to get checked out, in fear of having an S.T.D. After being diagnosed with a U.T.I, I began taking cranberry pills like crazy (4-7 a day) in conjunction with pain relievers (1-2 a day). I kept this routine going until march 7th. IS THERE ANY SCIENTIFIC REASON Y I WOULD PRODUCE A POSITIVE RESULT FOR MARIJUANA ALTHOUGH I HADN T BEEN SMOKING? p.s. i hadn t tested positive for marijuana those solid 5 months.

Normally after 90 days clean tests should be negative but it is impossible to predict how long it wil take. Thing like fluid intake and body weight also play a role. It gets stored in fat cells therefore if a person is overweight it could take longer.
Test strips are also sometimes faulty so be sure to test again if this is the case
