Troiiiiiiii oiiiiiiii What next?

[Ron va Thuy 0]

Will it ever end? Thuy passed her interview with flying colors but still needs her medical. They have asked her to report 630am to give a sputum sample for 3 days in a row. The problem is she can not produce any phlegm. Phlegm is easy to produce when your sick or have allergys but not easy if in good health. What can she do? Im sure others have had this same problem. Any insight? Ideas? Once again, Thanks in advance!!

Ron, sorry to hear that. a hot shower with the water on the back will help loosen any phlegm. your problem seems to be there is none to produce. i read that drinking plenty of fluids the night before may help. I know my wife hates it cold when she sleeps. on days whenn the room is cold she wakes up with phlegm, and she is not a happy camper. hope that helps some. good luck

Happy Thanksgiving

I hope you have this issue solved and finished with the sputum collections by now. My fiancee went thru this not once but twice, the second time they had to stick a tube thru her nostrils.

It will take approx. 3 months to get the result back. Remember when the results come back you will have about 3 months for the medical to expire so don't wait around..get the Consulate to review your file ASAP, even if you have to fly back here and come in yourself. Good luck to you and be very patient...
