Question regarding anabasine pre-surgical testing, please

[DebLW]

Hello - I will be urine tested for anabasine two weeks prior to having surgery in January. I am using the V2 e-cig, and while it is acceptable for me to be using NRT patches, gum or lozenges, I am wondering whether vaping produces anabasine. The patches aren't cutting it for me, and I am much more relaxed when vaping.

Could anyone answer this for me? Very much appreciated!

I found this post it seems the concensus is smoke and vape free for 2 weeks to pass a nic test. The anabasine is only found in tobacco and you should pass that while still vaping. Have a look not sure if i would take it as gospal but its a start. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/new-members-forum/204533-blood-tests-nicotine.html

I'm pretty sure that there is no anabasine in normal electronic cigarette juice.
Although anabasine is one of many alkaloids found in tobacco, nicotine is the only alkaloid in our juice.
