Hi Guys,
I want to tell you some information regarding immigration medical .
I am ptb Survivor . (
I did 12 months treatment , more than 15 X-rays , two CT-scans , Two bronchoscopy , two time cultural tests including MTB and AFB BAL with bronchoscopy , one time immigration Cultural test)
Approach : I went to a small village's doctor to India's top specialist doctor who are having more than 45 years of experience in pTB diagnosis. You can't imagine how I got out from that extremely stressful situations . (Weight gained : 45kg to 80kg)
Right now I am in Canada as PR . I reached here in March 2019 . I had also cleared PTB test at here in Canada after landing .
Following points please note down :
- PTB cann't stop you to move in Canada , because it is 100% curable . If you have any doubt please post your question on this forum I will ans it . ( This line is for those who have positive ptb, Nothing to worry about anything ) .
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now I want to tell rest of persons who are normal but have scar on their lungs . Please live without fear , because If you had ptb in your past years and you had treated more than 6 months and Now you have not symptoms then nothing to worry about anything .
Immigration process :
First phase : general medical test with chest X-ray !!
Second phase : if they have found any scar on your xray then they will required cultural test x 3 with a repeat xray. That process will take three months in India .
Third phase : If your Cultural report fine then doctor will do repeat x ray and compare it with older one , If everything is fine then doctor will upload the reports to immigration . and within two weeks maximum you will receive a mail from immigration of medical clearance .
Fourth phase : After medical clearance you will receive a on boarding letter within month or it will take 2 months max, In my case I got it within a week . That letter have all the information about facilities for new immigrants .
Fifth phase : You will get a passport request within 2 months after that letter, that is the max time you can get earlier as well.
Sixth phase : you will get your passport back within 2 weeks with COPR letters . ( Happiest moment but with some tensions )
Seventh phase : I said "happiest moment with some tensions" , that means you with get these COPR letters with medical surveillance letters . But nothing to worry about anything . In Canada doctors are not Greedy , There is very transparent and powerful examination system . You have need to clear your ptb tests here as well , it will not make any impact on your immigration process . You need to call TB nurse and then see to your doctor .
Live Happy Life in Canada !!.
I hope this information will make you happy . If anyone have any question please post it on this forum I will ans your questions when I will see . You can ask any type of doubt regarding PTB . I have very hard experience of it .
I am writing because recently I got cleared by Canadian Doctors and I realized many things regarding which medical I had in India before PPR . I don't want anyone face it as like me , I had extremely bad experiences but I also got some good doctors in India .
I will share my complete story when I will have some free time . In Canada life is very busy . Good luck guys
Sorry I forgot one more thing :
Note : Please choose a good doctor not hospital . Please check his background history , his study and his experience . That is very important .
