Visa Medical won't be sent before interview

[PixelatedHearts 0]

Hi all, long time lurker, first time poster.
Hoping for some guidance, or reassurance or something!

So, despite the long wait between NOA1 and 2. Everything has mostly gone according to timeframe regarding the whole K1 process. I even had my medical a few two weeks before my scheduled visa interview (June 7th). However I've now encountered an issue that has me floundering.

 

I have unusually high blood pressure, and the Visa Medical people had asked me to get a management plan from my GP before they send off the medical results to the embassy. Due to the long wait times iv only just been in to see my GP, who has informed me that he cannot devise a management plan until he has run some tests. He has me scheduled for blood tests, and ECG and a 24 BP monitor test. The blood test I'm scheduled to get done tomorrow, the ECG on the 12th and apparently the 24 BP monitor test can take weeks to schedule. So I'm in a bit of a loss on how to proceed. 

My practise have said they can provide me with a letter explaining my scheduled tests but my doctor has stated that this letter alone will not satisfy the Visa Medical people without the results of all these tests and a treatment plan.

I suppose I'm looking to you all now for any confirmation or advise. Will a letter explaining the steps we're taking not be sufficient for the Visa Medical people to send my result from their test through? Do I still go to the interview despite not having the medical results sent through or should I call to postpone the interview?

any help appreciated.

You can still do the interview as planned. They will just have to wait then for your medical results before they can issue the visa.

Thanks for such a quick response!,
and just to clarify, this won't affect the approval/denial process?

You can also reschedule your interview (which sucks, I know).

You need to call Knightsbridge clinic and talk to them. People from Mexico, Philippines, and even England don't know exactly what that one doctor in London will accept. . Talk to the source.

 

Also, does your GP have many records of visits from you? Does he think your BP is too high or were you just very. nervous and hyped up in London? Your doctor can overrule by stating that he has never seen  unusually high  BP for you and is confident you don't need treatment. (If that is true)

You can interview in London without the medical. You will encounter some delays waiting on somebody to pull your case back up. Just because your medical arrives, doesn't mean they will continue your visa that day. So you wait days, a week, or more before you get back in he queue for processing.
