I had an autoimmune disorder, called GBS (Guillain Barre Syndrome) and i got a tracheostomy (i was on a respirator for quite some time) because of it. It happened 3 years ago but im all good now. Also, this disorder is not contagious at all. I was just wondering if it would affect my chances of passing the medical exam? I have no health problems right now and the GBS is a once in a life time thing only but it still worries me. Thank you everyone!

Most of deseases they are worry about is TB. I am not sure about something else though. I guess if it is not contagious you will fine.

During my medical exam, the doctor asked about my previous hospitalization, if I undergone a surgery before, checked my body for marks/ scars,etc.

I don't see that as being an issue. They are serious about screening for TB and do watch for scaring from self-inflicted wounds... so not a worry in your situation.

Do they ask about scars in your body? i have a scar on my neck because of the surgery

They do look at scars, I would do as suggested and maybe have a copy of your medical record from the surgery. Even though you just explaining the surgery to them may be adequate.
