Yes, you should get yourself checked out, epecially, as we have been saying that symptoms can be more obscure in women. Good luck.

If, as I suspect, you are 50 or over, you are entitled to have a full MOT from your GP when he will take weight, height, blood pressure, chloresterol etc. Go and demand it and then he will have the information to let you know of any problems you may have. Don't panic though. It's best to be armed with as much information about your health as possible then you can do something about any issues that may arise. Make that appointment tomorrow morning! All the very best to you
