Asked By:niceeass02 in Manhattan, NY

Okay so i know vitamin E thins the blood so we should deinking anything that contains it before surgery. However, I've been drinking ensures to get vitamins and gain weight before surgery (bbl, full body lipo). I am now 3 weeks away from my surgery date and ensures have 25% vitamin E (considered a low amount ?). Should i stop taking them? I mean its better safe than sorry.
