X-Ray Required at POE?

[T K 0]

Hi all --

I'll be flying to the US with my husband in less than a week and I wanted to find out if I need to bring the chest x-ray from my medical exam with me on the flight? If not, is there anything I need to bring with me to the POE other than my passport and the sealed envelope from the consulate (and myself)?

Thanks so much,

T

Yes you should carry all medical reports....

CBP are not doctors, even if you brought the x-ray they cannot read it - they are not radiologist. I packed mine in with my suitcase and gave them my brown envelope. The results of the medical (including a doctor's reading of your chest x-ray) is contained in it. The x-ray is now your souvenier

Good luck

Hi --

That's what I figured, but I saw on some website that you should bring the x-ray and wanted to double check. I figured that the medical results were in our sealed envelope that we're guarding like our lives depend on it :-P. Thanks!

seeing that your question has been answered, may i make a suggestion on what to do with the xray?

bring it along with you. and while husband is at work, look for your favorite pic of him (wallet size preferred), stick it on the area where your heart's supposed to be, get a nice frame to put it in, hang it above the mantle...and when your husband comes home, show it to him to let him know where you keep him in your life

(i know i'd be flattered with that gesture if the wife did it...but then again...im a sucker for everything my wife does )
