Mayo clinic prepared a helpful list of thing to do/think before seeing your doctor. Some specific to meningitis are:

- Am I at risk of long-term complications?

- If my condition is not treatable with antibiotics, what can I do to help my body recover?

- Am I contagious? Do I need to be isolated?

- What is the risk to my family? Should they take preventive medication?
