Asthma affect medicals
Hi there i was just wondering before we start on the whole applying for visas process does asthma affect entry into Australia?
My daughter is only 18 months but has been in hospital many times and the doctors have said it's highly likely she has asthma (cant diagnose until 2 apparently).
Would this stop us getting into Australia? I thougt it best to ask this question asap because i wouldnt want us to get so excited and then have our hearts broken!
Thanks in advance

Thank you for your replys....swimming with dolphins!! sounds amazing!!
Im glad you're happy down under, we cant wait to get the ball rolling.
I have to say the weather is beautiful here in Spain for this time of year (26today) we have just got back from the beach....bad weather in Plymouth hey? would never believe it lol
We have been in Spain for 16 months, not sure where we go for our medicals or police checks over here so better get some advice about that one
