Forgot to take iron and B+

I forgot to take the iron supplements and B+ three weeks prior to surgery. What is going to happen? My surgery is scheduled next Wed., 9/1. I will start taking the supplements tomorrow. I'm afraid to tell my surgeon.

    Why don't you just start today? Nothing you can do about it, the time is passed. If you were anemic and you didn't take your iron to build up your hemoglobin then that could make you medically suboptimal for surgery. You need to tell the surgeon, they should know.

    I would call you doctor's office for clarification. My doctor told me to stop all vitamins 2 weeks prior to surgery.
