In my case, I didn't tell my GP that I was vomiting and passing out. If you asked me how I was, I'd say fine - and somehow believe it. Weird.

This is the truth. My neurologist was completely thrown for a loop when my wife made a list of things I always complained about, because when I went to him I would say im fine, he would never ask specifics.
Then the neuropsychologist scolded me for downplaying my symptoms.
