georgiasmammy Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 Hi Guys, Looking for some advice or information on what I can expect during our medicals on 10th July. Me, my husband and 6 old are going to Cardiff Spire Hospital for them as requested by our case officer the other day, in preparation for our subclass 189 visa application approval. I know that me & hubby will have chest x-rays (not my daughter) and HIV blood tests but is there anything that I need to be worried about? Generally we are all in good health but was wondering if I need to prepare myself for something I don't already know about. Responses would be amazing, thank you x x x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastie Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 Hi. Nothing to worry about. I also went to Cardiff Spire and everything was fine. Free tea and coffee. Nothing like NHS! I had X-ray first then went in to see the doctor. Height and weight checks. Two blood tests. Checked breathing and had a good feel of my tummy. I think that was it. Oh had to do a urine sample. The staff were excellent. The doctor was a bit officious but fine. Coastie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgiasmammy Posted June 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 Hi coastie, thank you so much for your reply. The only thing that worries me is the weight check. I'm not super-morbidly obese but I am overweight. Just wondering how much this will go against me. Everything else, I'll be fine on.

Worst that will happen is that your medical will be referred and you will have to wait a couple of months. I have a friend who is very over weight with chronic high blood pressure and got through okay with no questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgiasmammy Posted June 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 Thanks coastie, I haven't got/had any Medicals problems, just like my chocolate lol. I will keep my fingers crossed. Thanks so much, you've definitely put my mind at ease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
