What kind of nicotine test did you have to do?

Hope you are all doing well and staying healthy.

For those who had to quit in order to have surgery: what kind of testing did they do to make sure you quit tobacco?

I quit smoking 26 years ago, but everyone in my program had to have a nicotine test. It's one of the blood tests they order when they do your labs (usually once you're in the program - and sometimes right before surgery, too)

I didn't have to do one before my RNY but I did before my recent plastic surgery. It was a urine test. Apparently they test everyone. I've never smoked.
