I've read a lot about taking multi-vitamins (without vitamin E), Arnica Montana, and Bromelain pre and post-op. I normally take a multi-vitmain, vitamin C, calicium + vitamin D, magnesium, iron, and fish oil. I'm down to just my calcium and vitamin C to avoid vitamin E and other supplements that were on my list of "do not take 2 weeks prior to surgery." Are Arnica Montana and Bromelain necessary or even safe? I'm worried they may trigger migraines (which I have a history of)or be unsafe.
I'm scheduled for a BL with Augment and a modified mini TT with complete muscle repair and lipo to contour in May. My PS gave the go ahead to take arnica. I found an article that suggested the brand Vitamedica Arnica Montana tablets (3pills 3xday) and Bromelaine with Quercetin (3 days prior and 7 days post) Have you seen any reduction in bruising and swelling with these products?
Hello, I'm having a tummy tuck, lipo, and breast augmentation in 3 days, and I bought vitamedica clinical support. The Bromelain with Quercetin says take 3 days prior to surgery. Would it be ok to start taking the pills today?
