hi all!

im just really confused with what to do after coming here in USA. I underwent sputum exam and had a negative result. Now a friend of mine told me she received a yellow paper instructing her to go to hospital to have her medical again. Her POE was detroit. Mine is Seattle and i was not given.

Do i also have to undergo another medical exam here in USA? Anybody know the process?

Please help me.

Maybe your friend really need another medical here. My POE was Detroit and I'm under 2 months sputum culture also but I never receive any yellow paper during my Point of Entry. So don't worry if they didn't give you some paper for going medical again meaning your okay.

We did not get a yellow paper we got told in the Visa holding room at POE by the lady doing her file that the CDC will be notified and we will have to do a recheck for TB in the USA they also gave me a copy of her medical file it says:

Class B1 TB, Pulmonary. Sputum AFB smears negative on September 04, 05 and 06, 2012

MTB cultures done on the same date were likewise negative after 8 weeks of incubation (November 01, 2012) Presently asymptomatic

Chemotherapy: No history of Pulmonary Tuberculosis treatment.

Eligible to leave for the U.S.A. If applicant becomes symptomatic prior to departure, she needs to return to St. Lukes's Medical Center Extension Clinic for pulmonary re-evaulation.

Will need medical follow-up within 1 week upon arrival in the U.S.A.

I also wonder how this will effect her AOS the lady at the Heath Department gave me a paper saying Skin Test Negative but she is not a certified CS I posted more of what i went through here:
