own civilian doctor is supposed to monitor & treat you
long-term.) I should stress that this won't work in active-time,
when there'll be no rotating MOs to pass the buck around, nor
frequent FFIs & medical checks for consistent follow-ups. Also,
note that you're playing with your own health (if you're really
ill).

Hmm. But if the MO ask you why you think you have hypertension
and what symptoms you have, how to answer?
