Undiagnosed medical problems

Post by Stevens450 »

Morning all

Having a spot of trouble with my RG8 form, I have some symptoms of a certain medical condition on my medical records but the condition its self was never diagnosed. Do I still have to declare it on the RG8?

Thanks

Don't self diagnose go see your GP and confirm these symptoms, if then you have nothing, then you don't have to declare anything.

You can declare the symptoms, but if you've never been diagnosed with the condition then you can't put it down. I agree with going back to the dr for them to confirm whether or not those symptoms actually mean you have the condition. Even for your own peace of mind!
You can have peace.
Or you can have freedom.
Don't ever count on having both at once.
