. i just have one question. ive been working in a hospital and took care of patients with TB. will this be a problem in my medical exam? i read that during the medical interview part, they will keep on asking if you have been exposed to a person with TB. im afraid about the sputum exam because that would mean delay.

any idea, if it will be a problem?

If you have it, you have it. Lots of people with no symptoms nor known exposure to TB have been required to undergo sputum exam because of "spots" or "scars" in the their lungs. SLEC will determine it thru the mandatory x-ray exam.

If asked about your medical history, its of course best to be truthful.

Do you think guys, if we can have the early x-ray exam to check if i am okay or cleared with TB. So when the time come for SLEC medical we are really sure that we don't have TB. What's your input guys?smile.png

I would suggest you do your medicals early enough just in case they require you to do a sputum.the x ray will show if you need a sputum test. and if you are subjected to one its not the end of the world I did one and was so devastated but now this is the last week.will be going for the results on Monday time moves really fast.bu tan early medical will do you justice
