Help with postponing college exam

So I've had the stomach flu for two days now and my exam is tomorrow. It's a midterm not a final because the course I'm taking is yearlong. Do you know if it's possible if I get a doctors note that I would be able to post pone an exam because I have no luck studying when I'm cuddled up in a ball praying for a brighter day. Seriously, I feel like absolute a**.

Get one from your local pharmacy or walk-in clinic. There's no examination and they write you off for minute symptoms (think the cold, flu or seasonal viruses). Most universities have specific policies for when you can defer an exam. If you know this then feel free to test your luck.

if you have proof they might let it go and weight your next exam twice as much.

How many days can you inform your professor in advance?
Email him ASAP and get proof from a doctor.
