Yes you can still have water.
Do not eat anything or drink anything other than water.
Also, if you are getting labs done and if you are a smoker, that may effect the results. So, if you smoke, don't do that either until the blood test is completed. I know that if you are getting checked for diabetes smoking will raise your sugar levels.

Yes, in fact I was told by my Doctor and the technician that draws the blood to drink plenty of water before the blood is drawn. The water plumps up the veins and makes it easier to insert the needle, and has absolutely no effect on the blood test results.

Yes, water & other CLEAR liquids are o.k.
Coffee with NO cream, tea, water, jell-o, etc. Basically anything you can see through is acceptable. Eating prior to a blood draw causes the blood to become lypemic (clouded with lypase) which usually leads to abnormal or invalid results.
