My kids are sick, should I treat myself anyways to avoid getting sick too?

My surgery is in 16 days, and I am worried I will get sick and have to reschedule. I have 4 kids who seem to get every cold that comes around this year- now one has pneumonia.She is being treated with zithromax. I am scared of getting sick and was wonder what you all think about taking antibiotics to Prevent illness. I have a course of antibiotics I can take-on hand-. I do not want to ask my doctor as he will not think this is not necessary as I am not sick yet- what do you all think? I do not want to have anything stand in my way for this surgery.
