Hi Beg1

Here's the advice from the NHS

Social Distancing

gov.uk/government/publicati...

Self-isolating for 12 weeks with serious health conditions – see the section headed – If you are at high risk

nhs.uk/conditions/coronavir...

The final bullet -have another serious health condition is at the moment a bit vague, the best advice is to wait for the next week, until 30th March to see if you receive a letter telling you that you are in this category, do not contact your GP in the meantime to see if you're in this category as this will swamp the surgeries
