Quickfix 6.2 Sent to Lab HELP!

I'm hoping someone here might be able to help shed light/info on my situation and help me out. I took an "ecup" test (I believe) yesterday in Connecticut with QF 6.2 for a govt job and have alot riding on this. The batch number was good, so I got the temp up to around 94 and applied the heat pack and kept it super tight next to my sack. I figured that plus my body temp would keep it within range. When I pulled it out to check the strip after driving to the location it had somewhat rubbed off due to moisture from my shower earlier. I had to just trust it was still within body temp range. I shook it up and poured and did not see the temp strip because I was washing my hands while the lady talked to me. I thought I glanced once in the bathroom and the strip was just black, though I didn't look closely before handing it off.

She had me initial and put it in a small machine which she said takes 5 minutes to run. I left and was waiting before calling a 1/2 hour later. They said the machine in the office must have detected something so it has to be sent to a Lab out of state. Well I am really scared at this point! They never asked for another sample when I was there so I assume the temp was good and it was accepted. Has anyone ever experienced this?

I'm wondering why the small machine would detect something and have to be sent out, because that seems not usual. I called the QF number and the guy confidently said don't worry bro you're fine, youre gonna pass. Well I am starting the job on Monday and the doctor said it could take a week or so for the results. If the temperature was off can it still pass a lab test? Any thoughts? I have everything riding on this.

Thank you everyone!!

 

Thank you for your input Spanish@rcher! The initial detection by the machine is what is worrying me.

 

Wow. Thank you for that information that's really insightful. Do you have any idea how common the gas tests/preservative tests are? Can they detect preservatives in the little ecup machine that you know of? Man I'm nervous. Thanks again.

 

Thanks guys, unfortunately they didn't give me anything. They may have mentioned a lab name perhaps I was too shocked to hear it. I guess I'm hoping it's a standard lab test. It is government so who knows. The scary part is it detected something in a small 5 minute machine at the doctors office.

 

When I called originally they said it didn't have to be sent out. Not sounding good if they can detect preservatives, I may already have failed.

 

I'm guessing if they did detect it in the quick one then they would for sure look for preservatives in a lab test specifically.

 

Thank you. It's starting to hit me there's probably little chance. It was supposed to be a 5 minute test unless there is a problem. I was smoking a few times a day for years. I had alot on the line big new job, moved to a new state, career contacts. Now I may be starting all over. Thanks again.

 

So if they find a preservative in the quick test it's just confirmed at the lab? Damn. Wish I fidnt use synthetic urine. I thought it was for sure.

 

So you had a non-negative get lab tested and pass? I'm going to be going to work Monday and will be very embarrassing to fail.

 

True, it is what it is now. Thank you for your advice and information.
