Should I cancel my doctors appointment?

I'm not well and I have a doctors appointment tomorrow about an unrelated matter. It's the flu I think. My hands and feet are very cold and my throat, head, and all my limbs are sore. My doctors is always full of vulnerable people like old people and babies and I don't know whether I should cancel or not. What do you think?

    If you are not well and postpone the other issue it may be wise as you are exposed to the other germs and are in a weakened state and lowered immunity and could pick up something new on top of your "flu".

    You also expose others to your germs as well.

    If you need help w/ the flu symptoms, go to an Urgent Care and be seen quickly and exposure to others is less most of the time, you can even call and check on the amount of people there to judge when is a good time to go on an off time perhaps.

    Best wishes
