Taking Sputum Test for TB History Before Actual Medical Exam

[technology 1]

Hi,

I got TB treated successfully more than 10 years ago which was in foot, even on that time I never had cough/blood etc. I need to know if I should get SPUTUM test before the actual medical exam or interview scheduled.

I am planning to take SPUTUM exam from same medical center responsible for taking MEdical Exams for US immigrant visas, will this save my time so I may not get delays in getting medical report?

Thanks for reading out!

As part of the medical exam, you'll have an x-ray to determine if you have TB. With your previous medical history of TB, I would think that the doctor at the US embassy's chosen clinic will want to take the test themselves. I wouldn't pay money to do it before the actual medical exam and risk having to pay and do it twice.

Thanks, I got a good and timely answer.
