Has anyone smoked until that time surgery?

I am having laparoscopy, possibly a laparotomy on monday. I principally smoke when I drink on the weekends, then own 2-3 a day otherwise. I wont smoke the subsequent 3 days before surgery. Will I be nontoxic or is there still a risk in attendance? Has anyone smoked before surgery and have complications?

Answer:
I had a cigarette a hours of daylight before my tubes be tied. I was fine.
i smoked in the order of an hour before i have surgery. im fine. but it wasent a bad surgery at adjectives, they didnt put me out
Millions of people smoke prior to surgery.
You don't smoke profusely so it shouldn't cause you any more problems.
Try to avoid smoking after the surgery cos quitting is the best entity you can do for your health.
Do what the doctor told you. YES you will hold problems.
2 years ago I had a breast running down and I smoked 2 ciggies before my surgery. I am a 10 a year smoker and I had no problems what so ever near the operation. The anethetist asked me when my last ciggy be and was fine beside my answer.
Last November I had a caeser but didnt smoke back that operation, and they didnt ask me this time if I had have a ***. (I went 3 days lacking a ***. shoulda quit!)

People that I know of who smoke and have have surgery have have no probs either.

But later again. why risk it? I was pretty silly doing that. I guess I be just lucky.

Good luck beside your op.
