Using Allegra and Flonase for allergies before breast aug, should I stop?

wexler823
Breast augmentation scheduled for next Thursday (so in 9 days). Yesterday symptoms began including stuffy, runny nose (clear drainage) and scratchy throat. I went to my PCP today and she agreed just allergies. No known fevers. She said continue Allegra and began using Flonase. Is Allegra and Flonase okay to use up until surgery or do these need to be stopped a week prior? My fear is if I stop them this might turn into an infection. Thoughts?
