Chrones Disease
Hi All,
Just going through vetassess at the moment and looking to come over on a 176 visa. Really worried though as my wife has chrones dieease, will this fail her medical. I will be the one getting the visa as an electrician will this help. Is there anyone who has chrones who has passed there medicals and can advise what details we need to get together and how much the drugs cost as she is on full time medication with azathioprine. She has not had a flare up for three years now though.
Any help and info would be really appreciated.

You might be best to speak to a migration agent who is experienced with medical conditions. Peter Bollard and George Lombard are two who come highly recommended by others on here.

It's Crohn's disease and yes we could probably help achieve some clarity for you.

Hi Minty,
I've got crohns and have my medical on tuesday.
If you go to the Medicare australia site it gives you the PBS list (basically how much drugs will be), i've looked briefly and Aza looks to be bit cheaper than UK prescriptions.
Has your wife got her medical booked yet?
Good luck to you both.

I'd be keen to hear what the Migration Agent said to you about Chrons as my brother has it and wants to move to Oz, but he's worried it may reduce his chances!?
