Endoscopy scheduled Monday but sick as a dog!

[animallover1247 249]

My endoscopy is scheduled Monday but I have a horrible sinus infection. I'm not on any antibiotics for it. I have to drive three hours to the hospital, one way. If I am sick when I get there, will they reschedule my procedure? It's not like its a very invasive, a light down my throat. I don't want them to cancel it whether I call and tell them or if I go and they cancel it themselves. I wouldn't think it would be a big issue but I don't know....

Hi there again, I would call them and let them decide, what a long drive for them to just tell you that you will need to reschedule. I have had this done, not for the surgery but for other reasons. If you have anthing that affects your breathing they usally won't do it. Good luck

Have you ever been scoped before? Trust me you won't want to have this procedure while you're sick. I would reschedule.

Yes but it was in 1999 and I don't recall much about it....
