My Fiancee told me today that she may have a problem getting all her medical records (Immunizations) because the medical center closed years ago and she does not have copies. I told her that i may just have her go to a doctor now and get everything she needs. This is the list that i found and i want to make sure she has everything covered.

  • Mumps
  • Measles
  • Rubella
  • polio
  • tetanus and diphtheria toxoids
  • pertussis
  • influenzae type b (Hib)
  • hepatitis B
  • varicella
  • pneumococcal and
  • Tuberculosis (TB)
  • HIV

Are is this not a good idea?

HIV and TB she would have the test.

So if she has no records is there anything she could do to prepare. She is 27 years old.

We don't have records either :-(

The doctor's office (south africa) doing the medical said not to get vaccines prior. They will sort what he needs during the medical.

Lets see what others that have done this in the Philippines say.

Good luck!

You'll get all the vaccines required at SLEC; my fiancée got a total of 4 shots. One is a triple immunity in one go, so no need to worry.

I have heard there is no extra cost if waiting to have the immunization done at SLEC. That it's included in the cost. Is that correct?

That's probably MMR.

Also, no HIV on list, I didn't even get tested for it. Only TB and syphilis.

All immunizations at SLEC are included in the medical cost. Doing them before or after will come at your own expense, and doing them state-side is way more expensive than in Philippines. For example, Hepatitis B vaccine, a 3 series shot over 6 months costs about 20 USD per shot in Philippines, where-as in USA, it's 80 USD per shot.

Of course SLEC chooses what you need to have and if you feel you need extra protection against other things, go ahead and get them if you feel the need.

If she has records then bring them, but you say yours are missing NO BIG DEAL. SLEC will administer the vaccinations that she will need. The good thing is that they are included in the medical fee so it's not necessary to go to a family Dr. to complete.

Old medical records (vaccinations) are NOT needed, SLEC will administer whatever vaccinations that CDC requires. So relax.
