I was a regular smoker for years. Then started vaping about 2 years ago,but still had a couple of cigarettes a day . I still have an occasional 1 and I cut my vape juice to almost no nicotine. I have 2 weeks before my nicotine test and I'm at 0% vape juice and I'm worried about the test. Has anyone out there had similar situation??

Came across your post through a google search. I’m dealing with the same thing and wondering how you made out with your test?

I just saw your post. How did your test come out? Mine didn’t test for nicotine, they tested for cotinine (sp?) because it stays in your body longer. I quit 8 days before my test and it came back negative

Yes I did the patch and 0% nicotine vape which I barely used and I was a pack a day smoker I did this 3/31 and my surgery was 4/14 no problem. I did tell them I was on the patch and to deal with it. They said the blood work would show if it was cigarettes versus the patch, so I guess I passed. Now I am still struggling since it's been since 3/31 and I find it harder then the food restrictions to stay quit.

I bought nicotine tests for home, and by day 10 or so, I was clear. I vape heavily for many years. I read that if you stop vaping to 4 days before the test, you'll clear it since the typical test isn't as sensitive. Hope this helps.

I am an ex-smoker. I quit because of the surgery. I forgot I had to go for the monthly urine test and stopped smoking about 7 days beforehand. It came back negative. I am not saying you can smoke you to then, but if you smoke and have to go for them, please stop a week before and you’ll be ok. I haven’t had a cigarette since the end of January. Do I miss it? Absolutely! Will I start again? I hope not.
