I got a call on a Monday that I would have to take a nicotine test in 2 weeks from that date so after the call I didn't smoke another cig I ran to vape store immediately and got Omg for my vape.... otherwise I was never a heavy cigarette smoker but I also vapped 6mg or 9mg liquids trying to slow down cause I knew I would have to take the test... anyway I passed on 2 weeks of 0mg and just got my approval and surgery date of June 13th

Congrats. Do you know what test they did? Carbon Dioxide? Cotinine levels? Blood/urine/saliva?

I think those reading this thread and planning around how long in advance they need to stop should be aware that this length really depends on the test. Some tests you can get away with 3 days of abstaining, some can take over a year (hair).

Was you nicotine test, a blood or urine test?

Was you nicotine test, a blood or urine test?

I had a blood test and was completely negative after 4 1/2 days of zero nicotine.

• I have been a cigarette smoker since I was 15 yrs old. I spoke to the Baritrician, she gave me a prescription for Wellbrutrin and she told to quit 5 days after starting the prescription. Then after I quit for 14 days, i should come in and get the nicotine test..

I have been reading all of the posts and I just went and got a 0mg vaper. Hoping it helps. The Wellbrutrin is working to take the edge off (Just quit today) I want the Vape, just in case.

Thank you so much, this takes a little stress off
