Hi, i had done my med back in jan 22. i was asked to do culture or sputum test. It took 3 months to get the result. The result came out negative and I passed the medical exam.
Now if i do the med again, the old culture report will do or, do i need to take culture test again??

also i have heard that medical results are applicable for 6 months so i reckon you will need to appear again, unless you were in contact with your local medical assessment center.

After sputum test result was negative.

Hi
That's what I am trying to ask, did they ask you for 2nd xray when your sputum results were negative, did they even give you date for 2nd xray?

My sputum results are not yet come out but they gave me 2nd xray date on the same day I gave my medical, that is 29th Nov

Yes they did ask me for new xray even after the result was negative. No need to worry.

I wasn't told anything about the sputum test. But the doctor told me there is nothing to worry after seeing the 2nd xray.
