I have a question and I feel kind of silly asking it. I was told to be off Cigs for 3 months before I could be considered for bariatric surgery at Keesler AFB. Well I havent been smoking but I have been chewing the gum. I didnt realize that the gum would cause me to fail the test. A friend of mine told me it has nicotine in it. So now I have to go to Keesler in 7 days. Do they test you for nicotine? Does anyone know? I feel so awful!!! I thought I was doing so well with not smoking and now I find this out. Should I put off going for awhile and if so how long. I really need this surgery and I cant believe this has happened.
