This shouldn’t hinder the passage of the tube but it may be a little more uncomfortable for you. You should also make sure you don’t have Covid~19 since this would likely cause your test to be re-scheduled. You should call the place where the test is being done and find out if they want you to re-schedule or get a Covid-19 test. Good luck with your test!
