Sputum Test

[Dean_De 61]

Hi Guys,

This is just the curious me speaking..well, part of it is the nervous me over my upcoming medical exam, I know I just went through PPA - chest x-ray last month after having a bad cough due to Bronchitis which the Doctor told me..I asked my doctor if I am safe from TB and she laughed at me and said the Chest Xray found no trace but just Bronchitis. Thanks goodness it wasn't yet my medical exam...so my question now, since our plan is to submit myself to a medical exam a week before my interview, and if the result will not be in my favor ( knock on the wood) what will happen to the scheduled interview? will they automatically reschedule the applicant? How long does this sputum test thing last?

Thanks VJ's

God Bless each and everyone of us and goodluck to our Journey!

Your interview will be rescheduled. It takes 2 months to get the result of sputum culture.

How does St. Luke do the sputum culture? Is it true that you have to be there present every week until they are able to get the last sputum culture?

Hang in there, take antibiotics.

It starts with you going back for three days and then you'll go back home for 8 weeks waiting for the results.

Oh I am already good, alive, and kicking..hahhaaha - KIDDING aside....but you know how life works, sometimes in the game of life we experience the unexpected at times we don't wanna expect it. So, its best to still always come up with some kindda alternative plans
