Thanks all. :)

The thing is, I don't think they ever realise that my blood pressure is ALWAYS high due to constant anxiety, rather than 'test' anxiety only. It was really high for the testing I had at the PMS clinic several years ago. I tested it at home on my parents' dewberry recently, and it was high-ish, though my GP tested it a while back and didn't seem concerned. But I can always feel my heart racing, pretty much all the time.

I can see it coming up as
- possible high bp.
- underweight [but I was born underweight, so..]
- blood sugar issues, but not quite diabetes [My Dad has borderline Diabetes, and I have similar issues with losing it when I don't eat to those he has. Plus frequent weeing, though IBS is a factor in mine.]

It's just, my GP never pays much attention to my physical well being, and this is a first really that I'm getting a 'proper' check.
