Dear lybrate-user, congratulations for deciding to quit smoking. If you decide to quit, there is no need to do any test. If you want to know what damages are done already, you can consult a doctor and get appropriate tests done. Actually the craving takes around 6 months to go away from your mind. Nicotine and its withdrawal takes only 3 months of to clear from body.
