Best Answer

acetone is a ketone, doctors can check for ketone in your blood or urine, and if acetone is present it could mean you have poorly controlled Diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis, are on a very low carbohydrate diet, are starving or have an eating disorder, including disorders that result in poor nutrition such as anorexia nervosa or bulimia, Alcoholism, or poisoning from drinking rubbing alcohol, have not eaten for 18 hours or longer, are pregnant. so pretty much if you have a high blood acetone level, youre not taking care of yourself.

If it is regulated by the level of sodium in blood, the story is just the opposite and we have positive feedback. -my own conclusion from several researches-

Can diabetes cause false positive alcohol test results?

No, diabetes has no effect on blood alcohol content. That depends on what type of test you are referring to... Acetone (or other ketones) in the blood/body, whether because of Diabetes, other illness, or some Diets CAN, and often DOES cause false positive alcohol test results if tested with a Breathalyzer. It may not affect the actual blood alcohol content, but it CAN cause false positive test results... THAT is why the result is called a FALSE positive.
