Test for smoking

Can anyone tell me when they got tested for smoking before the surgery. I am struggling and dont want to screw up and not get my surgery. I have had so much going on the last cpl months and this is all so stressful enough just having a major surgery. Now im 3 weeks before my sugery and i had quit but backslid. If anyone feels like sharing or has any advise i could use it right about now

As soon as I was told I had to quit I did. That was at my first NUT appointment. I surprised myself and just said that's it... I'm done. It was difficult but nothing was going to stop me from having this surgery. I was tested at my last NUT appointment which was 6 months later.

I was tested about a week before surgery. It was a urine test. You can call and ask them when they want you to take it. I'm sure they are used to it. hehe

I was tested at my pre-op testing appt a week prior to surgery, you need to have quit at least 21 days prior to the test in order to pass
