You are likely to be tested over and over to prove yourself, sometimes unannounced. Depending on the test used, and how often you used and how much, your body could be clean in 5 days. Most people are clean in a couple weeks. Some aren't clean for a couple months. No one can tell you what will happen in any one case. But the better you fully cooperate with your case plan and the longer you stay clean, the better things will go. You should by now have retained a lawyer and should discuss your specific testing concerns with your lawyer.
