GOOD DAY!

i'm phoebe

i've been reading about what to do on medical examination and interview.

i will have my medical examinations on april 30 and 31.

i'm just worried about this medical exam.

because i had tb.

i think almost 3 years ago.

had medications for almost 2 months,

and had 3 diffirent x-rays through the company where i'm working right now because of examinations that they are conducting every year

and i think they didnt detect any tb on my x-ray because i was hired by this company and still working for them until now

but still so much worried about this tb that i had almost 3 years ago.

i just want to ask if theres anybody there who can advice me on what to do?

anybody who have same scenario?

i'm so worried about all the delays that might happen.

do you think that this tb that i had will still appear on my medical exam??

I would suggest taking all the documentation you have from that treatment and the followup you had. And then put it in God's hands for the rest. Like everything in this journey, we face it as it comes and move forward. Faith is powerful use it to make your self strong! Our prayers will be with you.

hello phoebe,

been through all those medical too. from my experience and the people i know from there. even if you bring all your medical exams before and medication you will always go through again and they are good detecting. just a little blur in the xray they will do the sputum test.and if still yout tb is a little active you will be going through their medication for 6 months everyday go there to drink the medicines they will provide.and after that you will be all good. the only trouble is the travel to the medical clinic.but all in all after all those everything will be ok.dont worry.if they detect they will medicate you.after the medication or some people i know, before the medication is finish you will be schedule for the interview and if you pass they will release your visa after all your medication is finish and the medical clinic give their approved report of your medication. we just can hope that if your xray wont be clear you go sputum test and if sputum test is negative then you wont go for 6 months medication.just hope and pray that it is negative coz 6 months everyday there!!!wow!!!you are just on the beginning of the process!!! there are still more ahead!!!

hope this information can help you.i know the frustration and the worries.goodluck

If you had medications before it might be cured already and physicallly fit to work that is why the company hired you. Some company are not particular on it as long as it is not contagious. But since that you had a history of TB, St. Lukes might have some findings on your x-ray like scars and will require you to have a sputum test for 2 months culture.

In my case, i do not have history on TB but they have findings on my chest x-ray (fibrosis) and i had my sputum and it was negative. At my POE the officer advised me to call the local health department for a follow-up test after 1 week. I had my chest x-ray again with the same results at st. lukes and i had my Tuberculin Test which is positive (some are saying coz of BCG vaccine we had in the phils), so i had my medication for 6 mos. and they gave me clearance card that i am done with it.. :dance:

Dont worry, you still have more time to be healthy, take vitamins and eat healthy foods, drink plenty of water and juices, rest. You will be fine in you medical and dont forget to pray...He will answer all your prayers. God Bless!
