I would have to say yes, I have taken it before my surgery and had no issues. You may have to check with your Dr though if you are instructed not to take anything that thins your blood. Tramadol is not a blood thinner it is an opiate antagonist which means in simple terms is like an opiate but without giving you much of a high...in simple terms it fills in the gaps of what an opiate would do in the brain in some ways. Its a pain killer for mild to moderate pain as far as I am aware. It is better to check with your Dr though for all matters and depending on the surgery my advice might not be right for you?

Yes Tylenol is ok but do NOT take aspirin, advil or any other pain medication. They thin the blood and can cause problems during the procedure.

Sometimes it can be taken prior to surgery, but it depends on several factors. To find out if you should take your dose before you have surgery, you should ask the doctor.
