Can secondhand smoke cause a positive nicotine test? BBL in 1 week

Asked By:bbl_bunny in Los Angeles, CA

My bbl is in 1 week. They do a nicotine test the day of surgery and they will not perform the surgery if the test is positive. I do not smoke (never have) but I work in a smoking establishment. My patient coordinator said its possible for secondhand smoke to cause a positive test. How many days before surgery should I stop working to ensure a negative test?
