    My surgery date is in 11 days and I’ve switched to zero nicotine in my vape 3 days ago and I can’t actually cope with the mood swings like I don’t understand how they can expect people to just stop smoking like it’s that easy I feel like I should be excited about getting a boob job but I’m just dreading the full leading up to it nervous and dying for a tab ? is literally crying over everything aswell. Help

    I vape too and if I’m honest I carried on with mine I can’t survive with out it ? I only have 3mg in mine! & I smoked it before and after and I’ve had no problems! I think it’s worse if you smoke actual cigs I wouldn’t worry to much xxx

    Hi! I had to go nicotine free too. I vape a lot but was only on 3mg. I halved the nicotine for 2 days to 1.5mg then went to 0. I bought cold shots in a zero too (you know the ones like blackcurrant tunes etc) so I still got a fake hit at the back of my throat. I also bought some nicotine test strips of ebay and I was clear in about a week. I’d paid in full so had a lot of money riding on it and wasn’t going to risk it! Try extra strong mints too xx

    I know I’ve bought them strips too and I’ve got the menthol liquid in to give me a fake hit but it just doesn’t seem to work and annoys me more haha I know it’s alot of money did you get tested Jodie? Xx

    Dazzelea when they dip your urine for a pregnancy test they dip it for nicotine aswell but I’m not sure if they do t for everyone or just random ones x

    Hahaha I’ve read it on the mya website but I’ve only seen a handful of people get tested and it would just be my luck I did, did you tell them in your consultation that you smoked a vape? Xx

    I do think most wont get tested but deffo go for the ice versions of the vape juice .. I quit actual smoking to pay for
    My surgery so if I can do that then your be fine vaping 0% is better than not being able to do anything and the second your on the way home you can go back to normal .. I panicked about having metal hair extensions in it was all I could think about and they didn’t even ask or check but it ruined the excitement so 0% it

    Not every surgeon tests.. But if they do and its positive they will refuse surgery and you won’t get a refund. That’s what I was told! So I’m playing by the rules just in case because I don’t have another £xxxx to throw around x

    I’m 6 months post op now I had 450cc unders and I vape constantly and I was so scared about them cancelling my op! But I also heard that testing your for nicotine is not aloud and not true so I’m unsure weather it is or it isn’t I did get a pregnancy test the morning of my operation though! That was all I was tested for I did try to give up leading up to my op but I got so stressed their was no way I could do it so I was vapping the whole time and soon as I come out my operation aswell x

    Hi who is your surgeon? I had Dr Mashadi and he made me do a nicotine test, which was a strip test that detects nicotine for up to 4 weeks. I was on patches up to 2 weeks prior to my op and I failed the test so if I was you I’d get off your vape as well. It’s anything that contains nicotine, so patches, vapes etc and it wasn’t a blow test it was like a pregnancy test which is either negative or positive, honestly he nearly wasn’t going to perform on me. I had to grovel and I was absolutely gutted because I’d genuinely not smoked and the nurse id seen prior knew I was on patches and said I’d be okay. Luckily enough for me he went ahead with my op. A lady before me had failed and blamed it on passive smoking and he refused hers, also a friend of mine went for a tummy tuck and she failed the nicotine test and she was refused then too with a different surgeon!
