- Bring a list of your symptoms from the worst to the least.
- Bring a copy of any pertinent lab work, biopsies, tests or imaging results (disc and report if possible) that have already been done.
- Make a list of any hospitalizations or surgeries and the year they were done, so you’re prepared if they ask.
- Bring a list of any meds/dosage (I take multiple prescriptions so I give them a tidy typed out list to make it easy).
- Ask what tests will be run and how long it will take for those results to come in. Write down all your other questions.
- Bring a pen and paper.
- Bring someone if possible as an extra set of ears and/or to take notes (that was invaluable when my husband was diagnosed with cancer as his mind went blank - we were able to go over everything at home from those notes).

Wishing you the very best of luck at your appointment!
