I fumbled in my eye test as I couldn't read last row of letters. Result was that i got nervous and my BP shot up to 160/110. Another Doctor rechecked BP and it was 146/96. They asked me to go for ECG and Creatanine test. However Medical document that they passed me didn't list ECH + Creatanine test. Should I still go ahead and upload the document ? or is it like I should speak to the doctor and get the correct document which list last 2 tests as well ?

The panel physician has no right in making any decision on your medical exam. They can only inform you if you have a serious condition where your life is at risk and need immediate treatment.
He/she sends your test results to CIC Health Branch, and they decide if you need further tests or not. Those are the rules according to the panel physician's manual.




The same thing happened to me so don't panic, is normal.

Go back to the panel physician and he/she will access your medical file in the CIC date base and will be able to see what further tests you need to do. Most likely it will be an X-ray (like in my case).
What happened to me was that the CIC doctors saw a spot on my lung and they suspected TB. They ordered me to have an X-ray done 3 months after my initial medical exam. This way, they can compare both of the X-rays and if they see the spot on the lungs hasn't changed shape or size, then there is either no TB or is inactive.

My panel physician saw the spot on my lungs and I explained it could be from an old pneumonia I had as a child. He agreed, but said he needs to send the results to CIC and they will decide what to do next. He even put a note saying: "patient informed of having pneumonia as a child". CIC doesn't care, when it comes to TB, they are extra cautious.

Even if you have active TB, all that means is that you have to have a 6 month treatment before coming to Canada. The bad side is that your PR application will be put on hold until you finish your treatment. But I'm sure this is not the case with you (like I said, I was sent back for a second X-ray and sputum tests because of an odd spot on my lungs and it turned out all negative), so don't worry, go take your X-ray and everything will take its normal course. Be happy they didn't ask for sputum tests like they did with me, cause that took 9 weeks to get the results. I was lucky I did my up front medical 2 months before sending the application, this way, by the times I was done with the further tests, I had passed my medical right after SA, so my application was not put on hold.

Omg is what you are saying is the PR cannot in their own request further testing. Hmn that’s strange. In my case I got a request for further testing (sputum) back in nov. I completed it and it was negative. Then took another X-ray which showed clear results. Now panel physician is demanding I return in May for another X-ray even though CIC didn’t ask for it!

What test are you being asked to do?

 

[Raman137]

What test are you being asked to do?

CT scan ....

 

[YVR123]

CT scan ....

That's a bit unusual. Are you being sponsored by your spouse or are you a parent being sponsored by your child?

 

[Raman137]

No its for study visa and today in ct scan it's comes out likely tuberculosis acute or chronic and asked me to go for bronchoscopy....

 

[Raman137]

I am so tensed right now... What will happen future .... Is it possible i got refusal due to this???

Then you have posted in the wrong section of the forum. This section is for family sponsorship and the test/requirement for medical exam is very different.
