Hello,

My husband went through same process. Had been requested to have ECG due to HBP. It took us almost a month before Nationwide forwarded our medical.

@ imbubbles - nasa initial stage pa lang kami....my problem is since we are not based in the Philippines, medyo mahirap kumuha ng mga docs na kailangan....yun ang dilemma ko talaga. And re sa proof of funds, most of our savings kasi is in Japanese bank kaya medyo yun pa ang aalamin namin kung papaano kami kukuha ng bank draft doon. Sorry tanong lang po, is bank draft different from bank certificate?
yup totally different.. bank draft is like a check, nakalagay iyong amount na babayaran mo in this case your application fee at ii-encash ng CIO, Novia Scotia un. bank certificate is a legal document stating the amount you have in the bank.. certification lang sya for whatever purpose it may serve :)

Hi all, tapos na medical ko.....

whaaaa!!!nakakatawa....me and hubby visited our doctor 2 days ago.nalaman mataas ang sugar ko, si hubby mataas ang BP. 150/100.pero normally 130/90 lang talaga BP nya pero say nya natakot daw sya during blood extraction. so what our doc did was to give him losartan and for me metformin na low doses lang..

then eto na...nagpamedical exam na kami...ask sya ng doc kung tumataas BP nya, say nya YES, ask sya kung nagssmoke sya, answer nya YES...hala! nirequest sya ngayon mag pa ECG..di ko na alam result kc diretso forward result sa embassy

FRIENDS...ANYONE NAKAEXPERIENCE NA PINA ECG AT ANO ANG KINALABASAN NG MEDICALS?

si hubby naman doesnt experience any chest pain, difficulty of breathing or any decrease urine output kasi pina creatinine din sya...

say ko sa kanya, kung magiging pabigat sya sa Canadian goverment pagdating nya dun, dapat di na sya nakakalakad...feeling ko its jusy protocol for them to diagnosed correct condition and to advice correct treatment....

ANY OUTPUT, FRIENDS?

SUGGESTIONS:

1. maganda sa nationwide, sa akin di strict ang tingin ko sa mga doctors...
2. eat before you go there especially kids
3. drink plenty of water as in 5 liters evryday
4. kung may money, magpacheck up prior
5. bring kids immunization records, they ask for it
6. bring extra money, for additional tests
7. pwede mag dala ng yaya kung maraming kids para di ka maharass, mabilisan kc ang tests
8. b there before 7 am, preferrably wed-fri kc di marami tao

haaayyy, sana okey result ecg ni hubby at ng makapagmove on na kami.....

lagay mo lahat ng previous work experience mo sa history but provide contract, JD, emp certificate for those under the official 38 NOC list :)

@ caloy,

thanks sa response. really mean a lot. was ur husband required to do other test after that ecg? were u called again by the dmp for follow up checks or medications?

Will the dmp suggest medications to be taken?

@imbubbles,

nakakatuwa nga si hubby say nya nagsasabi lang daw sya ng totoo. :mad: :mad: say ko sa kanya kalungkot...palagi syang honest....medyo di naman ako kinakabahan kc ive never seen him having any chest pain or difficulty of breathing..di din cguro sya naging concious sa sinasagot nya kc nga wala nga naman talaga syang nararamdaman... ::) ::)

Hello,

No worries, yes he was asked to have cholesterol and blood sugar check afterwards. Don't worry for as long as your husband is healthy you'll be right then. The only hassle would be the waiting time/schedule time for check up.

Hi Caloy,

I think they already require the new passport - the maroon one. Better secure now.

Thank you...ang tagal nang appointment sa DFA.... ::) Almost a month before ka makakuha.........
Hi Caloy,

Are you having your passport renewed on your own? You didn't engage the services of a travel agency? I was just wondering because when I had the passports of my dependents renewed to machine readable last month, it only took us less than a week for the personal appearance (PA) schedule at DFA after I submitted the renewal application forms to the travel agency. It was a breeze and the new passports were released in 2 weeks time. Also, I can always ask them to schedule our PA first thing in the morning (around 7am) so I don't have to take a leave of absence from work.

The downside though is you have to pay a little bit more (P1,500 per passport)...but you cut back on the processing time.

By the way, Anscor Casto Tours and Travel was the travel agency just in case you will be interested.
