hi, its a basic medical but i think u should keep ur chest Xray handy at the immigiration counter.
Even if u dont carry ur medical dont worry u can get it done at the airport ( heathrow has that facility for sure) but the queue is long sometimes.

Just carry your X-Ray report in your hand baggage. If you forget that you will have to get an X-ray done at the Health office at airport which at times takes 2/3 hrs. You need not carry anything else.

If you have a medical history, it makes sense for you to carry your test reports/prescriptions etc so that the same can be provided to your Doctor when you register at the surgery.
