I am not sure if you are on the right forum, but I can tell you this.  I am a nurse in a surgery center and we allow vitamins and meds except for diabetic meds, coumadin, aspirin, fish oil, and Vitamin E.  I don't think vitamin A will do anything, but then again, I don't know what kind of surgery you are having nor what your doctor has advised.
