Another question just for the ladies!!!
Have just booked our medicals for 8th August. About 2 years ago my smear test came back with severe abnormal cells. Had to go to hospital as a day patient and have them removed (Lazar technique). All my smears tests have been fine since. Will they ask about this at the medicals, will i have to take any letters with me from my doctor. I have got a letter confirming my last smear test was fine will that do.

Had our meds done at Handsworth Wood. Dr only asked for copy smear result. Didn't ask any other questions. As previously advised only answer the questions they ask. Don't offer any further information.

Hi Stacey
About 18 years ago I had some treatment (cold cauterisation) for abnormal cells. After that for the next 10 years I had to have yearly smears, all has been fine since. I put it all down on the form, even took the results of my recent smear, but no questions were asked.
Everything will be fine I'm sure.

You must list this treatment under the history of hospital treatment section of the medical - also take the letter for your last smear test showing clear.
I also had a test result abnormal cells - although very early stages and no treatment necessary (my little sister not so lucky - had the same procedure as you twice) - was just monitored every three months for a period, followed by yearly, followed by every three years. Declared the result - told him period of testing altered and showed him letter with final result. As under 35 didnt have to have exam.
Dont risk it! It is like insurance companies - not worth not mentioning something as will come back and bite you in the a**e.
I honestly forgot to mention a water scald I suffered from as a toddler - he spotted the scar and asked! He then made me fill it into relevant section of medical form. He checked all scars apart from when I had a Coggoloctomy (took my word for it - ha ha).

Exactly the same happened to me, except I only got the all clear Jan 06. Had my all clear letter and smear, declared everything on the form, made sure the Dr was aware of it and he said it wouldn't be a problem. Phew! Also went to Handsworth 27th/7, so still waiting for the results! Good luck!

Re: Another question just for the ladies!!!
We were worried about husband as he had blood tests taken after a bad back and they came back funny. We put off having medicals for 3 months because we were worried they would take blood and see that it wasn't quite right. Anyway our migration agent told us to just go for it and in the end the doctor at the medical only took specific blood tests (HIV and Hep A as have tattoo) and he didn't even look at our doctor medical file!!
Go for it I say
Oh and his bloods are fine now

Re: Another question just for the ladies!!!
Our panel doc never even asked when my last smear test was never mind if it was ok the subject was not mentioned at all.
Different docs different meds even in the same practice but I would take any letters relating to your tests just in case.

Re: Another question just for the ladies!!!
had meds a few weeks ago, panel doc asked if i were up to date with smears and i said yes, did not ask for any paper work and asked if i check for any lumps on breast, i just said yes to that as well.
stop worrying, I had a disc removed from lumar spine in march and was frantic about meds, took a letter from surgeon and told panel doc it was successful and had no probs, he did not ask to examine me but when i sat on the bed for him to do reflexes etc, he noticed scar at top of my trousers and said, 'oh thats healing niceley'.
it will be fine and as you have had all clear thats proof enough for them, take a letter or results with you
