How to best prepare for a life insurance medical exam? 
In addition to Neil 's excellent advice , I would add : >> Pick a place for the exam where you will be most relaxed . If you have `` white coat syndome '' -LRB- your blood pressure goes up when you are nervous -RRB- , have your examiner take a reading at a time of the exam when you feel most relaxed -LRB- like maybe after your blood sample has been drawn , if also have a fear of needles -RRB- . >> Be prepared to answer lots of health questions , even if you have answered them before . Double checking is the way they flush out things that may have accidentally been omitted , and that is what ensures that your policy will pay out for your loved ones if tragedy would occur . >> Have the names , addresses and phone numbers of your doctors on hand , as well a list -LRB- or the bottles -RRB- of your medications .
