Hi all,

We went through our medical last week thu, and my husband has high blood pressure and was advised to have ecg. We haven't return yet for ecg what we did we went to our family internist/cardiologist. My husband went on ecg as his advised, he was given a maintenance to lower blood pressure and seen slight heart enlargement. I'm the primary applicant here. Does this going to affect our application? Please need your input because we will proceed to the medical and do the ecg on the prescribed clinic.
 
Hi,

Though medical examinations are generally confined to a standard physical exam including blood and urine tests and x-rays, prior medical conditions, treatments and records if any are examined. The DMP asked for ECG because of his elevated BP. As he started medication for few days as the Cardiologist advised, he will be fine and his ECG would be normal.

What CIC says for medical:

Applicants may be denied a Canada Immigration (Permanent Resident) Visa solely on medical grounds, if:

Their condition would endanger the health or safety of the Canadian population at large; or
Their admission might cause excessive demand on existing social or health services provided by the government.


In view of the above, please note that your husband's situation does not fall under this category and he is being treated. There is nothing worry, if this is the only problem I hope he will qualify for PR.

A medical can be done later too.
