How long after getting approved for health insurance is it safe to go to the doctor?

I'm 90% sure I have cancer but am afraid if I go to the doctor and diagnose it they'll tell me it was a pre-existing condition and cancel my insurance. I've already waited a month and can tell my condition is getting worse. What's a safe bet?
--------------------
Once you are approved, you are covered. I would wait till you had your insurance card so you don't have to pay upfront and be reimbursed. If they are going to cancel you, they will do it no matter how long you wait. I think you are good to go in and get checked out. For what its worth, I hope your wrong about having cancer.
