2 Days of Medical

[vsmtghdy 2]

Thanks everyone. Especially vsmtghdy. Very informative reply! I wasnt wronged about my surmise that I will have my sputum test. I started it yesterday (Tuesday) and will finish tomorrow.. I pray and hope that this will be the last phase I will go through in SLEC (aside from Immunization) coz I heard from someone that her fiancee's interview was cancelled because she still have to undergo pulmonary check. What's that? I thought once the sputum test is done, then it's done. I meant, they'll inform you if you (still) have active TB or none. *sigghhh*...

It's my pleasure to help and give my insights/medical point of view. Pulmonary check is nothing to worry about. That "applicant" will be seeing a Pulmonologist (Lung specialist) at SLEC to re-examine her closely, check the results of her sputum AFB's and her CXRs. After re-examination, the Pulmonologist can clear her and write his/her findings on the forms that will be submitted to USEM. But if the sputum AFB will turn out to be positive, then the pulmonologist cannot clear the applicant and would be informing USEM and that applicant would be re-scheduled for her interview until such time the applicant will be deemed treated for PTB. That means no more active TB and no longer infectious.

You just had your treatment and I'm sure your sputum AFB results will be negative. Hope for the better! Good luck and God Bless!

UPDATE:

I had my pulmonary evaluation earlier. The pulmonologist told me that 3 out of my 3 sputum test were negative. The least I was thinking was 2/3 Thank God! Really.. She said, I do not have to take another test anymore and no need of taking medicines for TB anymore. But I will undergo follow-up check ups again when I finally get to the US..

Ready for my immunization on monday! Woow. Finally. After going back and forth to SLEC for 7 days now. THANK GOD!
