    May not seem plesant at the time, but it's for a reason and people have to endure a lot worse. It's better to go through some little tests than end up suffering majorly from something because it hasn't been picked up on early enough.

    Sometimes you just have to grit your teeth and get on with it. :yes:

    i know how you feel, i wasnt always so keen on going to the doctors. doctors and nurses are trained to deal with all sorts of health problems and there isnt much that they havent seen and you can always change your GP if your not comfortable.
    i think your really brave for seeing how important your health is and:) like what was said b4 its better to sort yourself now than ignoring it.:)

    From what I know a body mot is just checking, BP, bloods, weight and listen to chest and heart. Nothing too scary tbh

    Well I have already had my Bloods done and I have had my weight done too. So I only have a few other things to get done. But it is still scary. Well it is to me.

    You can refuse to have anything done, so if it was that bad and they suggest it again then just refuse it.
