Smoking?

So I'm not a smoker but over the past couple months I have gotten into the "e-cig" thing. Does anyone know or has anyone heard if this would be bad pre-op? Is smoking forbidden pre-op? I know it's just vapor and nicotine but I of course want to make sure I'm not doing anything that could cause complications. My DOS is May 30th so coming up!:)

Thank you all for that information!! I am 1 week away from my surgery and my doctor hasn't asked me about smoking nor has he tested me for it. With that said ill just stop to prevent any potential complications... Gosh I hope this doesn't effect my surgery date!!!!!!! :(

Re: Lipstick lady

Lol I started smoking because they took away my wine haha:) been going through a lot personally and found the e-cig relaxing and also helped seriously as an appetite suppressant. With that said though, I haven't been smoking for more than 2-3 weeks so I'll just stop until after the healing and go from there!

Thanks for understanding that I wasn't trying to be a smartass. This time...
