Meds - What do they look for?
I'm just sat here browsing and wondered what they look for in the medicals?
Me n hubby enjoy a or ten and my hubby smokes. Do we need to dry out before the medicals???
Thanks

Not sure on drinking as unfortunately we don't get the chance often. They did ask us how many we had a week though. As for smoking, we both do that and had to tell how many we had each day.
Other than that they checked reflexes and joint movement. Hubby had to do the old cough and drop . I didn't have my boobs fondled Then it was a general chat on health and exercise, we eat well but neither of us exercise as such but we're still fairly fit. Weight and height was recorded, as was blood pressure. Blood tests and x rays and that was all.

they are mainly looking for any existing illness or condition that is likely to cost the Austrlian health system lots of money.
I would suggest you do turn up for the medicals sober
