Doubt it: If you have respiratory symptoms, you should wait.

Likely not: Most anesthesia providers will balk at a general anesthetic for someone with reactive airway disease which usually occurs con commitment with an upper respiratory tract infection. They will likely have you wait 6-8 weeks until this clears.
