I am currently on amoxicillin for strep throat. Should I reschedule my surgery?

My surgery for breast augmentation is scheduled for 1/20. I am currently on amoxicillin for strep throat (I had a positive strep test yesterday) and now I have managed to contract hand, foot, mouth disease. Even if I feel better should I reschedule my surgery? I don't want to put my body through even more stress if my immune system is not fully recovered. As much as I am anxious to have the procedure I want to make sure my recovery is as smooth as possible!
