7 Things You Should NEVER Do Before Seeing Your Doctor

Don’t take cold medicine before a sick visit

‘Some medications may raise blood pressure, and your physician would not know if the medication or the illness could be the cause.’ If you’re really hurting, it’s probably okay to go ahead—your doctor wants you to feel better and will rely on you to describe your symptoms. But definitely let the doctor know which medications you’ve taken.
