A Cold during preop liquid diet

Ok, so I am worried. I have had sinus and chest congestion for about 2 weeks now. It seems like since starting the liquid diet it has gotten worse so I am going to the doctor tomorrow. My concern is them giving me antibiotics. My surgery is 2 weeks from Monday and i was told all meds has to stop but my Blood Pressure pills and Birth control.

Has anyone else been through this? Should I be concerned? I plan to call my doctor on monday but I need something to calm my nerves. :thumbup:

    I really don't think the antibiotics should be a problem. Hopefully they will say the same thing when you call.
