Dave,
I find that usually before a surgery I develop a sore throat and sniffles...Unless you develop a fever they will usually do the surgery, but it depends on your surgeon. I think it is nervous jitters you are experiencing, but I might be wrong...I hope you feel better in the morning...
I would not take vitamins or over the counter meds as they might interfer with the anesthesia ....They advise against that and insist that you usually stop those type things about ten days before surgery....Call your surgeon if you are uncertain...I think it is your nerves...Good Luck...
