I am scheduled for BA with lift tomorrow. I have chest congestion and cough. Can I go through surgery?

Asked By:moshka81 in Atlanta, GA

I had to reschedule my surgery twice due to other medical reasons. Finally I went through treatment, got clearance and ready to go. 2 days ago I woke up with scratchy throat and chest pain. Should I reschedule again? Mucinex really helps. Called my doctor and explained the situation. He said that that it is up to me to have it done or reschedule. What are the risks? Can I still get it done and control my cough with Mucinex Postop?
