That is not a cause for failure of the standard medical exam for visa or immigration.

I believe that HIV was taken off the list several months ago.

HIV is no longer a cause for denial. That ban was overturned by Obama in January.

One of the biggies I've seen to raise a red flag is admitting to the physician the abuse or use of illegal drugs at any time. It's my understanding that it could cause one to be denied a visa and or determined inadmissible to the US depending on the circumstances.

I've read in some instances where this causes delays.

Another possible cause for failure is having had psychological problems with episodes of harm to self or others. Additional medical and psychological evidence is often requested.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

Hemorrhoids are just a pain in the @ss. Communicable diseases that are no ttreated and drug use.

Nik's medical was delayed until he saw his GP about the high blood pressure readings they took when he was in. For that sort of thing, a trip or two to your regular doctor and a faxed note did the trick.

June 4, 2009: Interview - APPROVED!!!

October 11, 2009: Wedding

AOS:

December 23, 2009: NOA1!

January 22, 2010: Bogus RFE corrected through congressional inquiry "EAD waiting on biometrics only" Read about it here.

March 15, 2010: AOS interview - RFE for I-693 vaccination supplement - CS signed part 6!

March 27, 2010: Green Card recieved

ROC:

March 1, 2012: Mailed ROC package
