    Hi Doc I tore my right rotator cuff on the job and started a workman’s comp claim. While waiting for surgery I became a heavy weed smoker to help with the pain. And it helped me. Now that I’ve had the surgery and completely recovered. I stopped smoking July 11, 2023. Now I’m ready to start looking for a new job in the trucking industry using my class A cdl. I’ve taken several urine tests and so far all have came back negative. I’m unsure if I was to take a hair follicle drug test. Do you have any suggestions for me. Thanks

    Yea this dude seems not explaining it well. I think he is just giving that as an example. The theoretical Person he is talking about. That was the maximum that person got Because if the half-life is 3 days. Let say you are a user of gummies that are a set amount. You know what is in your system but if you use them every day would it not be an ever increasing number would there actually ever be a plateau. How is Half-Life's a thing. Because if your body can get rid of 1/2 of 180 which is 90 in 7 days why can it only get rid of 45 in that next 7 days and not that other 90 like it did the week before.

    That’s what I’m wondering. I was clean for 5 months. Smoked like 2-3 Js, didn’t face them. I smoked it w/ my girl so, half of 2-3 Js. Took a home test a little over 14 days, about 19 days after the 2-3 Js. Had two lines on the @home test. So a negative. Took 4 hits total this past weekend. The 20th-22nd. 1 hit (Literally) on the 20th. Got a little buzz. 1 on the 21st Another little buzz, but I was also cross-faded. 2 on the 22nd I was actually high for like 30min-1hr. May have a drug test on the 30th. I’ll lyk how I do. For me, if I fail a drug test. I’d have to switch careers unfortunately. I naturally drink a lot of water. But, I’m about to double-up and go harder starting today. The 26th. 🤦🏿‍♂️ Finished w it for sure this time.
