Chest cold and surgery

Hi, I'm scheduled for GB on 12/5 and have a chest cold. Do you think, I can be rid of it by then and if not will surgery be canceled? I don't have a fever. Is there anything I can do to help things along? TIA!

    Sorry you are sick. I have a very sore throat and have surgery schedule for 4 days from now. Hoping it doesn't turn into anything worse by then. The dr office told me if it's a cold without fever they will still most likely do the surgery but any sort of infection will postpone the surgery. I hope not, I can only image coughing with a tender and swollen abdomen. You still have almost 2 weeks so think you should be good to go by then. Good luck!!
