I'm not a smoker, but someone in my pre-op surgery classes was and he was just required to stop smoking by the time they submitted to insurance—so similar to what is described above. Good luck quitting! Someone else in my surgery group said that she used Chantix and that it helped a lot, but another person in the group said that she quit cold turkey and that it worked for her.
