Hi guys, its again me. Today I asked my doctor about medicals and sputum test results. Her answer was, that I passed medicals because she didn’t receive anything from London office about me and on ecas I have a line, medicals recieved.

I think, POZ people have to give sputum test if;

1) they found out about HIV during medical test.
2) their lungs have scars.
3) they had TB infection in their past.
4) they are in contact with TB infected people. (Work, home).
5) their CD 4 is low and they are not under treatment yet.
6) they are from countries with a high incident of TB.
7) they already have TB.
And more possible things which only doctors could know.

My doctor was not experienced with HIV poz people, that’s why she was not sure what kind of extra tests I need. (in any case she asked me to do sputum, but after few days I asked her to upload my results and as you see I passed).

I did my medicals 2 months ago and still no interview for partner notification. Would be very happy if somebody who passed interview answers, how long I need to wait?
ANY UPDATE TO SHARE WITH US ?

I don’t really have no idea. Next step should be an interview or biometrics, if you still didn’t give it?

Hi, guys! I am hiv poz, I have a question. I was at doctors office a week ago for medical tests. My X-ray was clean, but they still asked me to do sputum test. I just wonder, does they ask all hiv poz patients to do sputum tests?
My numbers are good and I am undetectable. It’s sad I have to wait 2 month for sputum results plus 2 month for partner notification...
yes. its part of the additional test. did you so pulmonary test as well?

Physician asked me to do test, BUT my X-ray was clear, I never had TB in my history, so she did a mistake. She uploaded my results without waiting for sputum culture and smear results and Doctors from London accepted it.
