on Monday,went for pre admissions today,they told me to quit taking my vitamins today .I don't feel right about this.Does this seem reasonable?? I plan on calling surgeons office to confirm,but I just don't like it.lol wihdrawls of vits here...lol

It is really ironic that there are some (won't mention any names) that just don't take vits..and there are those of us that fret at the thought of not taking them..
Thanks for any info you can give
....

Yes, this is standard preadmissions instruction. Relax, it's for what, a couple of days?

Some can interfere with medications and anesthesia. For how long do they want you to stop taking them? If it is just a few days, it's not a huge deal.

Yes for 4 days, I am ok with it if it is normal procedure,it just seems like a long time without them.
That is why I posted just to make sure.I will just enjoy it ..right..

I'm delighted that you're so vigilant. Please STAY this way!

That being said, four days of no vites for surgery is nothing. Relax, it's all good. Just start them up again when your belly allows. Be aware that you might have a cranky belly for a bit.
