Medical Exam DAY2 - PASSED!

I went to SLEC again today, arrived there around 2PM. I got my 4 vaccine shots. OUCH!! My arms are still sore but I will live. I was told to go downstairs and wait for my results. It came out around 6:15PM. Imagine my impatience! Glad I was done with the medicals.

I PASSED!!! What a relief! Whew!

Two more hurdles and I'll be safe in my husband's arms. *sigh* I can't wait to see him again.

Medical Exam DAY1

This morning I received my new passport (went and got it renewed) around 11AM. And as soon as I got my passport, I decided to head to St. Lukes Extension Clinic for my medical exam. I arrived in SLEC around 1:30PM. The guard asked me to photocopy my Appointment letter and proceeded to give me numerous papers to fill out. They asked to see my passport and wrote some notes in their log book. I was let in and I filled out the form. I went to the receptionist and they took my picture, afterwards they stamped something on my passport and I was sent to the cashier. I went and paid the fee (Php10450+) and was told to proceed to the medical exam rooms. They took my blood, urine, and x-rayed my chest. They also checked for my vital statistics, eyes, ears, nose, and physical exam including peeking at my hoo-hoo. The first doctor asked me about my cellulites on my belly and she thought they were stretch marks from giving birth. I was sent to another doctor and she asked me if I had a boyfriend here (three or four times) and I said no. She checked my hoo-hoo again this time she probed it a bit with her hands and asked about my cellulites, again I said they were there because I'm fat and they itch sometimes so I scratch them! ARGH! While I was getting dressed she looked at me again and asked if I have a boyfriend here and I finally had enough and said "NO, Is there a problem?" She said that nothing was wrong. I was getting pissed and at the same time worried at this point and wanted to call my husband and cry. But she signed my forms and I was sent to the immunization room for interview. The doctor there wanted to give me 4 shots including HPV. I was hesitant about the HPV but she said that it is a requirement in the USA. I was asked to come back tomorrow for the results.

Interview Schedule Assigned!

After weeks of waiting, we finally got our interview date!!!! Whoo hoo!!!!

I also renewed my passport today under my maiden name. I got to DFA around 6:00AM and I was like 12++ customer in line! Sheesh! Talk about long lines. However, I was able to finish the entire process in 2 1/2 hours. Nice huh? I will receive my passport on July 23, 2009 via DFA Passport Delivery Services.
