Start with what matters most
Write down the main concerns you want to discuss. Note when each concern began, what makes it better or worse, and how it affects daily life.
Bring the full picture
Include prescription medicines, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, supplements, allergies, and recent test results that your care team may not already have.
Leave with a clear plan
Ask what happens next, when results should arrive, and who to contact if your symptoms change or the plan is not helping. Ask for written instructions when that would help.
