Yes, your Dr. should have given you a list of things you could not eat or drink. Water is usually not listed during a fast unless you're having surgery and even then, it is only a few hours.

When you are fasting to have blood work done you cannot drink anything besides water or eat anything. Any substance can affect your blood work and not give a proper reading on your tests.
