I'm a former smoker; by the date of my surgery, I would be Nicotine-free for two weeks and five days. My friends and family understand my concern with inhaling their second-hand smoke, so they keep a good distance when they light up, yet every now and then I tend to get a good whiff and immediately exhale and move further away from the source of smoke. This has happened quite a few times during the last two weeks. Would this have an impact on my surgery?
