Will a strep throat diagnosis 2 weeks before surgery require i postpone my lift and aug?

eliz1111
My precious 14 month old gave me strep throat. I was diagnosed Wednesday, November 12th. I was given a penicillin shot that afternoon. I've been resting at home since and feel much better. I haven't had a fever in at least 36 hours. I'm wondering if my PS will require i postpone my November 25th lift and aug? I plan to call him first thing Monday. I haven't been sick in 2 years! I am a very fit and healthy 33 year old and i can't believe I was unlucky this time! Thank you for any advice you can give.
