Can anyone tell me if doctors will operate (lapband) if you have a cold?

I had a cold last Friday when I had my Lapband. I called the day ahead to let the surgery staff know and then reminded my nurse when I arrived. If your lungs are clear (just upper respiratory) they probably will as well as no fever. The anesthesiologist will probably have input as well since he is responsible for keeping you breathing! Just call, better safe than sorry and will be one less thing to worry about!
