They replied after 24hrs. Stating:
"Thank you for your email.
We have received your medical reports and they have been assessed and finalised.
Please contact allocated case officer or relevant business area to follow up on the progress of the visa application.
If you have any further enquiries or system issues, could you please contact us again. "
So now i am confident that Nationwide has indeed forwarded my results to ehealth
The waiting game is still on
