Medical

I would hope they would do them to everyone.

I was never given a drug test. The medical interview asked if I was taking any drugs. I'm sure if it seemed that I was on drugs they would have ordered the test.

I used to do drugs... but it has been over 25 years since I did any... so am not worried. I drink only once in a while now... I only smoke ciggies (yep I am back to smoking coz the stress of this whole process has gotten to me) and take prescription medicines.. tons of that it seems

Again.. how do you know... the truth is that you have no idea what kinds of test they run on your blood. They don't need all the blood they take from you to do just an AIDS and Syphillis test... they have lots of blood left over...

It wouldn't surprise me if a drug test was performed on the blood... for everybody..

I was told at the medical I was being tested for HIV, Syphillis etc, I was not informed of a drug test nor was it mentioned....but I didn't have a reason to care either. I didn't think it was legally for them to test you without your knowledge???

Just lay off em for a few weeks before ya medical (6 weeks or so isn't it?)

For these purposes.. they don't have to tell you anything... the doctor has no doctor/patient relationship with the immigration physicials, the doctor is only responsible to the US Government and he/she will do whatever tests they tell him/her to do, period.

oh yeah I guess that makes sense.

Moral of the story.....don't take drugs

Then why are we paying?

You are paying for the physical yes... but then you sign a waiver stating that there is no physician/patient relationship, the physical is the property of the US Government, the results will not be divulged to you, the doctor is only responsible to the US Government, etc.

Because you're the one asking for a benefit from the US gov't?

I was not drug tested at my medical either.

London only tests for HIV and syphillis. Dr confirmed this and you give written permission for them to do so but If i remember correctly the questionnaire does ask if you have ever abused drugs.
