Is the questioner considered sinful, and is her sin insufficient because she broke her fast to undergo tests that required taking medication, knowing that she inquired about the possibility of postponing them until after Maghrib and was informed of the difficulty of doing so? And does she have to offer an expiation (kaffarah) in the event that making up the fast (qada') becomes obligatory?
