Hi girls,
So I bought some multi vitamin tablets today and now I’m wondering if it’s okay to take them the run up to my op? Sounds silly I know but I’ve heard people say they had to stop herbal life ect and I just want to do everything right 🙂 xx

I’d probably ask your nurse because mine told me I couldn’t drink green tea 2 weeks before my op? Xx

Hi Amber! I think it’s because most multi-vitamins include supplemental vitamin E. Vitamin E can cause the blood to thin and that can cause problems during and after surgery ☺️ xx
