Recovered bulimic having a nose job. Is a month and three weeks enough recovery time for my blood tests to be ok?

carolsmith23
I was bulimic and using laxatives for one year. I have recovered and haven’t done either in one month and three weeks. I’m very healthy now and eat a very well balanced diet and take multivitamins daily. Physically and mentally I feel and look great (healthy). I’m scheduled for a nose job and I have my blood tests tomorrow. Is a month and three weeks enough recovery time for my blood tests to be ok?
