[ja.da 0]

HELP! I think im screwed up! Seeing and knowing all the required vaccinations made me think that it would take days to have it all done..So when i was asked by the doctor whether i want to do it here in the Philippines or in the US..i said..i'd rather do it there... I am so worried because i know its a hell lot of money to do the vaccination in the US...

By the way, i ahd my emdical done today, i passed..and tomorrow it will be forwarded to thr embassy so i willt ry to calll them right before they open so i could atleast hold them back from sending it through...God please help me...anyone please???

Goodluck sa Medical mo Sis Linda:)

Good luck din sa medical mo Linda. Magdala ka ng kahit dalawang bottled water saka crackers. Ako ginutom at nauhaw sa sobrang tagal na paghihintay sa x-ray plate sa second day. Pero first day, dami ko ininom na tubig para sa urine test. He he he!

get all the shots in St Luke's. Mahal dito kapag dito ka nagpa-vaccine. Saka kasama na yun sa bayad mo sa St Luke's di ba?

Hello, my friends! I am planning to have my medical examination at St. Luke’s in a couple of weeks. Please offer me any advice that might facilitate the exam and may actually help me pass it. Something like specific do’s and don’t’s and your experience at St. Lukes might help. Also, please post any relevant matter that might not have been covered at the Embassy’s website. Thanks.

Ginawa ko din yan! LOL.Sabi kasi ng na met ko isang kababayan natin doon sa St.lukes na ganoon ang ginagawa usually ng mga mag magme-medical kaya ayun,ginawa ko din.Malusog naman ako kaya hindi naman ako worried nong aking medical pero why not try diba?Wala namang masama at walang mawawala if you will do it.

I don't know if it's really true or not kasi makikita din naman sa hitsura mo kung may sakit ka sa baga at ubo ka ng ubo at kung meron talagang sakit sa baga makikita talaga yun sa x-ray.Good luck to the OP!

Make a copies of your immunization record..don't leave any blank in the form that you are going to fill up..

{CAUTION}=St.lukes staff some are MALDITA,MATARAY... }

Is the immunization record really required for the medical exam? ? My mom lost my vaccination record and my pediatrician who administered the vaccines already passed away.

Hi nervouswrech! March 31 din medical ko. magkasabay tayo!!!.. hehehe.. if you wanna meet me dun it's okay para di ka masyadong nerbyusin.

Yes guys! you could get an allergy by eating chicken all the time... but i dont think the embassy would care for just an allergy... What they're trying to check is if you have a communicable disease.

yeah,that would help too! i drink two cans of Bear Brand early morning before i traveled to St. Luke's. Just make sure you have enough rest before that day if possible make it 8 hours.

Nah... make a copy of the immunization record at St Lukes, after getting the shots. I should have had my wife do that too, but didnt think of it.

The 2nd day you get all your immunizations. My wife had to get them all, but they made them into coctails, several per shot. She only had like 3 or 4 shots. She didnt have any immunization records to bring with her either, since her parents died when she was 5 and no other family to assist her in finding out if she ever had them. She just got them all new that day.

you don't need to worry about your immunization record, you just have to show your scar when you had your chickenpox.

they will tell you what set of vaccines you will be getting. as simple as that.

be sure to really be patient during the whole process.

there are times when you have to wait more than an hour just for a single step.

have something to nibble and something to read, but be sure to be attentive as your name will be called during the process.

never ever go on monday... (as per my 6 day medical experience) too many people...

bring every document needed.

have a xerox of your passport.

you will be needing the details on it when you fill up the DS forms.

they will be keeping your passport after you're done with your medical.

and bunch of prayers

The medical exam takes two consecutive days. So be sure that you do not have schedule the following day. They will ask you to come back for vaccination. That is if the result are all good. Some takes 3 days because they needed additional tests/exam.

Also, only those who will undergo the med exam are allowed to go in the hospital (unless for minor/elders). Bring the letter that you got from the embassy or the letter of confirmation of your interview sched. They will ask for that.
