star2017 got a reaction from rs in Frustrated, need advice.Thanks everyone . I talked to me PCP and she went over the results with me. The medical assistant in the plastic surgeons office told me both my blood and urine came back positive and I should get OTC gum or patches, which I don't need because I don't smoke! but my PCP told me only my urine was positive but with only a small amount which would indicate exposure to smoke not that I actually smoke. Which makes more sense because I'm around a lot of secondhand smoke. I just think it was rude the medical assistant didn't want to listen to me at all, like I was making excuses, no I was Justin trying to understand why it would be positive. Needless to say I have to wait another 6 weeks to be retested. Which is ridiculous.

I take my multi vitamins plus biotin i also wash my hair with nioxin level 4 since before surgery. I'm hoping it lets up soon i have already thin hair from PCOS . i just have to wait it out i guess ?
