    Cough syrup? Other medications? Food cooked with alcohol? Could be the breathalizer was not working properly. Next time, ask for a blood test, you will have to pay for it but, it is more accurate than a breathalizer.
    P.S. I don’t know if there is a way to have that breathalizer tested or check to see the last time it was callibrated or tested for accuracy.

    You do not produce ethanol. Occasionally a diabetic in keto-acidosis will smell strongly of ketones, a chemical in the same class as acetone (nail polish remover) and people will mistake the smell and their strange behavior as alcohol intoxication. I’m not sure if a Breathalyzer can mistake ketones for alcohol.
    Again, there are no people out there producing ethanol within their body, although some may be doing it in their garage or basement ;)
