OK guys, to give you a bit of an update. Nurse from surgery called this afternoon and has asked me to do a weeks worth of BP readings, done at rest twice daily. I also have a blood test booked to recheck thyroid levels and dependant on results of BP could have an ECG too. Was expecting more of a follow up Tbf given my symptoms and family history but I guess we have to start somewhere. 🤷

this sounds fine to me. You could look things up on the specialist charity website Blood Pressure UK and maybe give their helpline a ring.
