Actually, if they've seen a scar in your lungs most probably you will still go under a sputum test and wait 2 months for the results.. but on the other hand if you don't have a scar then don't worry about it..

Good Luck girl I wish everything will work on your medical, just pray and trust God for it..

I think the reason they asked you to come back at a later date, may be that your interview date is not set yet or it is at a later time than those applicants who were asked to come back the next day. It seems that SLEC keeps a close watch to be sure that all medical appointments are done in time for the interview at USEM.

i am actually going thru the sputum test and trust me its a pain in the @**. as stated above if u do not have a scar on your lungs you should be fine. my fiancee was cured and has yearly med check ups including for pulmonary disease's. she even came to the exam with the xrays and med certs saying she is cured yet they did not care and told her to come back to take the sputum tests and she has been waiting till this coming feb 3rd when the results come out for the culture test her final test. hopefully your ok and there are no scars showing...goodluck........o and btw if you need to take the sputum tests, they will be the one taking care of your interview date so dont worry about that. hope this info helps..
