Hi
I have scheduled core needle biopsy next Monday and am suffering respiratory infection the
whole week ( sore itchy throat, dry irritating cough, running nose - no fever).
I was hoping this would go away in a week but it is day 8 and does not get much better.
Can I do biopsy whith this condition?

Hi tkirzhner,

That's a good question to ask your doctor, since those symptoms can have varied causes, some more concerning than others. He/she has access to all of your records and can order further tests (for example, blood tests) and can examine you prior to moving forward with the procedure.

Good luck.
