  9. Hey everyone so I had a couple of appointments today and also had to see my surgery coordinator and good news is I got a surgery date but the bad news is they ordered a nicotine test for Thursday and I quit smoking last Tuesday. She said it would be out of my system in 2 weeks but it hasn't been 2 weeks. I'm so upset they probably going to cancel my surgery date. I am so screwed
