thanks kabayan. kindly accept my invitation thru yahoo. thanks

Hi kabayan,

Please be advised that they only test for Hep as per my above subject.

If your still in the Philippines and expecting a Visa and still not taken local pinas medical , email me I have to share some info with you privately.

Best Regards,

hi apple. can you please send your reply email to ahaqlasmo (old email)it looks like, we are in the same situation. test results HBsAg (reactive) and HBeAg (non-reative)and accdg to my private doctor this is non-contagious. i'm an engineer working in a construction firm and most likely to get an offer in qatar. please advise me/ thanks

My friend also experienced the same thing being puzzled with the result because he was also re-medical. They keep on checking via website but to no avail. His visa is about to expire soon when he went back to medical commission they said the result is ok then he is scheduled for finger printing the next day but the admin in his office said the result is still not found in the website. Is it necessary to have your name posted in the website to go for finger printing? What could be the other reason why the result is not found in the net yet the staff in the medical commission affirmed him that its ok and advice that he is scheduled for finger printing the next day?

Hi Apple,  can you send to my inbox, too as I need the answer regarding this one. Thanks in advance...

To Apple: I am an HBSag positive but mine is non-contagious and am very healthy. i have a possible job opportunity in Qatar as an Engineer. Can you confirm to me that I will not be tested for HBSag? from what i read in these forum if i belong in this Engineering Category, i will only be tested for HIV and PTB. Can i have the same email you sent to ahaqlasmo. Thanks and kind regards.

good day ms. apple same question of ahaqlasmo please email me.. thanks

Hi

I have the same question.

can you forward on Apple's reply

Thanks

RPS

is it true that medical exam still required even for visit visa?

I have sent you an email, do check your inbox!:))

One of my friends and his wife have HCV positive. My friend is an engineer and trying to get job in Saudi Arabia/Qatar in petroleum/petrochemical industry and want to move with family. Would he be rejected on the basis of HCV as positive ?

Apple said in one of the messages at forum:

"If you work under category written below, you need to pass all these test: HIV test, Chest X-ray(PTB) test, Hepatitis A, B, & C and others.

1. Medical

2. Para-medical

3. Food Handlers workers

4. Primary School Teachers

If your job doesn't belong to these category, you ONLY need to pass HIV test & Chest X-Ray(Pulmonary Tubedculosis) exam."

Dear Apple, please explain how correct/authentic is the above statement (is it official ?). If it is true, then my friend should not worry about HCV because he does not belong to any of above 4 categories. All members are requested to please comment because it is a little bit confusing. Apple! please give your private e-mail address.

I advise you to go back and follow up the results of your medical, just bring your passport copy.

apple i had aids test & ppd skin test (since i am pregnant) but i wasnt able to go back for the result of my ppd, what would happen next?, medical commission never texted nor called me for this (cause I know if there is a problem they will request you to go back or anything), can i assume that i am alright? and that my medical is ok? i went to medical commission by myself since i am under my husband sponsor and i do not have mandoop taking care of my visa processing.

can i now go to the cid since i didint recieve any calls from the medical commission? that was a month ago already...

apple i wasnt able to go back for the result of my PPD but i didnt receive any call or text from medical commission, will this affect my RP application?

hi. what i can advise is report to the hospital as scheduled. they will not send you home right away even if you ptb positive. they will give you medication. but they are knowledgeable enough if there's complication with the ppd test to your current condition. and they are not only relying from the ppd result. there are some things to take under consideration...

i am pregnant and was aske dto have a PPD test, i think im having a positive reaction to teh test, if they will find out that i am positive to ptb, what will happen? i didnt a\go to the schedule date that was asked me to go since i am afraid they will ask me to go home because of the positive reaction to ppd.

pls help

maybe you passed this time... so just pray and you can't help yourself but to wait....

good luck...

hi everybody, i took my tests on the 3rd of this month, on the 4th i got a sms informing me to get my blood test redone on the 10th. i went on the 10th and did my test, apparantly hiv1 or something was written "reactive", i was told that i will get a sms of the result, 10 days have passed and i am still to get the sms, how can i know the result?? if the tests were positive wudnt they have informed me??? i am worried.

guys, i got my ppd reading of 6mm after 72 hrs.. am i TB positive? is it possible if you are negative based on your ppd result you will be positive from sputum and blood tests?

thanks!

so there is no chance then...for someone who had hepatitis?

anywhere in the globe??

soon as i came there... they will send me home??

Hi

Yes according to my information they test for Hep C, as it is chronic disease, they are very concerned about it.

My request to all guys here.. take care of yourself and people around you from these diseases. If someone got it dont leave him/her alone, its part of life. This can happened to anyone.

I personally think there should not be medical restriction for people employement unless the disease is contagious.

Best Luck

Wrox

thanks,,alot..please need your info.

i was informed yesterday by our personnel that i have to take medical again for the third time. i was thinking that i would be taken xray again but when i arrived to the medical commission and gave my name,they gave me a referal form where my xray diagnosis was written below. i was diagnosed with "left pleural thickening...for evaluation". the other 2 people also received a referal form but their diagnosis were the same, "right apical pleural scar... for evaluation".

in my referal form,

purpose of referal is:

-Assessment

-Supervisor

but to the other 2 people:

-Assessment

-Electrician

I am wondering what are these Supervisor and Electrician.

But in my own understanding, Assessment with Supervisor which is maybe i will be having an interview with the supervisor.

and this electrician, maybe for laboratory tests or medication or what?

Medical commission advised us to give our referal form to our admin and have an appointment with a certain hospital here in Al Khor.

Is there anyone here went from this situation?

Please share your knowledge about this matter....do i still have HOPE?

thanks...

Coloured shirt is not a problem, but must be a shirt w/o buttons,zipper or underwired(plain) so you dont need to replace it w/ their x-ray gown. If your hair is long, dont forget to bring hair clip or pony tail to tied up your hair.

Also, try to be there early!

The notes in the employee handbook for my organisation say that it's advisable to wear a white t-shirt so you don't have to get undressed for the x-ray, but there is no mention of underwired bras. All my bras are underwired, would this be a problem?

pleural thickening are the same???

GOD, i will have the result of my re-ray this Saturday...

Hope and pray for the best!!!!

Yes! they will give 2 wks antibiotic medication:))

guyz, i met someone in Medical Commission during my re-ray.. it was his third time already... he said he was diagnosed before with pulmonary scarring...do they give medication for this before finalizing their findings??? because my officemate also had a re-ray after taking medicines... then after 2 weeks of medication he was scheduled for finger printing...

is it true that pulmonary scarring and pleural thickening are the same???

thanks

After 2 weeks you will be informed by your employer or whoever sent you to medical commission...because after the result, MC will send it to your sponsor, to the company or if personal, they will contact you.

Yes! they will notify your sponsor either you passed the medical test or not. If God forbid, you failed the test they will call your company or sponsor to take you back to medical commission for a repeat test.

it there any notification if you failed/pass the medical exams.do your sponsors really gets the sms message if you fail/pass?

how are you notified for a re-test?

I learned something new!

your doctor EXPLAINING what it is and why the scarring. If you are worried about moving your family first then come over by yourself and get the health started..then when you pass, move them over. Would that work for you?

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

All I know is they check for TB scars on the lungs, TB tests that are negative, HIV, Hep A and C and that you are current on all your regular shots.. I'm here with my spouse and all of that was required for my RP. Still waiting, but through with fingerprinting so far...yeah!

it's not a contagious disease, no worries!

Just so I've got this straight, if I have potentially been diagnosed (based on XRays) that I have COPD and there is evidence of scarring on my lungs-can or will I be denied a RPT?

I am still in Canada and only found out causee my employer asked for an xray before I go.

Still not even sure I have COPD!

noo.. i better have some chicks that come along witht he wrestlers..

sleeep.. we are on night duty in Qatar...

i think i know her,LOL!

No, Not on my waist...one WWF type lady actually hold my hands behind my back very tightly and pushed me to front....Now Apple can you imagine this?

[img_assist|nid=22259|title=*|desc=|link=none|align=right|width=135|height=180]

i can imagine you, w/ both hands on your waist, hee heee

at least you learned something, whenever you undergo Chest X-ray next time.

Apple,

You are right. They didn't tell me to take deep breath at first time indeed. But at the second X-ray , my goodness, they actually choked me by making me holding my breath for more than 1/2 minute. It was just the horrible experience for me.

[img_assist|nid=22259|title=*|desc=|link=none|align=right|width=135|height=180]

Thanks for your positive message that calms me down.

Remember they asked you to take a deep breath during x-ray? coz if you dont, it may show like a swollen lungs in the x-ray results. And for that reason, they will ask you to repeat the test again.

No! just inform the nurse and doctor that you have pacemaker implant.

Bonjiek,

I was x-rayed twice too. It was also a life time shock for me as I am not having any previous history of TB or pneumonia or any other disease related to lungs. But my Doctor friend told me that there might be various other reasons. The X-ray might be not clear or taken wrongly. Possibly it could be as simple as that.

Eventually I passed the medical tests and finger prints and C.I.D. everything. And i got my RP.

So, nothing to worry. Hope for the best.

[img_assist|nid=22259|title=*|desc=|link=none|align=right|width=135|height=180]

I have a pace maker implemented under my skin. Is a heart problem barrier to get visa?

Based on your medical history and your own story, i dont see any reason for you to fail in the medical exam. It is only their SOP to repeat X-ray twice or thrice to get assurance that the abnormalities detected from your x-ray results is not of that communicable disease(PTB). I believe, the Doctors are also knowledgeable enough to determine an active PTB or just a scars.

Wish you good luck!

Hello guys. Please help me about this. It has been bothering me since i had my re-ray.

I had my medical tests 2nd wk of june. I had xray and blood test. After 2 wks my boss told me to go back to Medical Commission for Re-medical. I found out that i have to take another x-ray. This time, I was x-rayed twice, one in a normal position and the other is a side view position raising my left arm and holding my hips with my right arm.

I am worried with the result. honestly i already worked before in Bahrain for 1 year and 2 months and had also my medical- xray, eye test, blood pressure, and physical check up. I am worried here in Qatar because they said they're very strict in issuing the RP or working permit. Actually i have a medical history about my lungs. I suffered pneumonia when i was very young(11 years old). and i was inserted with a tube under my left armpit to remove the liquid inside my left lung. but the doctor did a mistake so he inserted it again on the upper part of the previous one.

15 years passed, i found out that the doctor's mistake left a scar. that's why everytime i had an xray they found a pleural thickening in my lower left lung. And this is sometimes mistakenly diagnosed as TB+ but I always insist that it isn't and i had my sputum exam and thank GOD i am negative in TB.

So my question is, would they consider if you have a pleural thickening in your lower left lung? since i believe this is not contageous nor a disease....though i am working in an oil/petroleum company but I am assigned in the office, Computer Operator.

please help... i am so worried... whatever result with my 2nd xray i will post it here...

God Bless to all....

note:

i heard from my friends here that those who have hepa or any blood disease, they will have difficulty in getting a permit to stay in Qatar. For TB or lung problem, you will undergo 3 times xray until doctor will finalize the findings if they will consider you or give you medication and after 2 weeks, take another xray...

Good luck and God Bless to all who are having problems in getting a Residence permit or working permit in Qatar...

Sorry to say, but the mandouh or mandoob, should have check w/ the medical commission not the immigration!

Also it maybe just a reason for you from the company, but the real fact they dont want to hire a Hepab carrier employee, Internal policy!

I am an petroleum engineer from Singapore and have been recently offered a job by Maersk Oil Qatar. I informed them of my being a carrier of the Hepa-B virus - otherwise i'm healthy. Soon after that, they pulled the plug on the offer, saying i have no chance of obtaining RP. Apparently, their "mandouh" has checked with the Immigrations people about my case and got a flat NO, i.e. I cannot work in Qatar and any other GCC countries. This contradicts what i've been reading in this forum, especially those by Apple. Can anyone help me?

Last month i went on medical for my new job, i ask the doctor and nurse who took my blood, if what test is required for an office job as my sister went on medical too, 2 wks later and she's gonna work as admin asst., They told me HIV and PTB only. N'way, i'll double check w/ my friend and thanks for the infos :)

No, any positive in any of the 3 tests and you're denied residency and sent back whence you came.

so if it's found positive does can one obtain iqama?

Everyone is checked for Hepatitis C, not just those in medical or food business.

After the medical your sponsor is alerted via sms about the result, pass/fail. Assuming all is good next is fingerprinting and after that your residence permit can be processed.

Yes! you can do the fingerprint immediately. so, just relax everything will be ok :)

Thanks Apple for always replying on my post. Another thing, after medical will I immediately go for fingerprinting or it will be for another week or so?

Once you are done w/ ur medical exam you can check w/ the medical commission at least after 3 working days. Just show your receipt number or passport copy at the male counter section and you'll get to know if its ready or not. For a medical employees it usually takes about 2 wks to have the results done due to other test

(e.i. creatinine test) that has to be sent to HMC for investigations.

In your case, you are only required to undergo blood test(HIV) & Chest X-ray(PTB), so i think it wont take long that much. Dont you have mandoop/representative for your company? he is supposed to follow up all these things and you can always check w/ him.

Good Luck!

Is the medical exam result always takes 3 working days? beacuse my colleague did the fingerprinting 2 weeks after his medical exam and he said the medical exam result takes 2 weeks. And the only thing for him to know if he passed the medical exam is because he did the fingerprinting process. And is there anyway to know if you pass the medical exam?

But try to be clear from all these before coming here. Welcome to Qatar!

Im an I.T. guy so guess I dont have to worry about hepa. what about other STD diseases, do they check those?

sIf you work in the admin jobs then u only need to check HIV and PTB results after 3 working days. If you work as a medical,paramedical or any food handlers jobs...you also need to check hepaB and hepaC :)
