Medicals
Hi,
I'm sure this has been done before but I just wanted to ask when you go for the medicals how far back in the family history do they go and do they take into account certain factors i.e heart conditions that other family members suffer from? :confused: Any help would be gratefully appreciated loadsa luv Sal :wub: |

My family history is bl**** awful! It's really not that bad at all, me, hubby and daughter all went in together and got examined in front of one another so...shows it's not too bad, height, weight, bloods, eye test and XRays. Do you or anyone going with you have any health problems - if nothing drastic you will be fine...honestly I was worried sick as my waist measurement was a few cms over the acceptable level but my doc said well just breath in when I measure you then! Our daughter has selective mutism so wouldn't read the eye chart and he said I'll go out of the room and let her read it to you, then you can tell me which line she can read up to, so all in all no where near as bad as I had expected!

Debbie I've just snapped my achilles and am in plaster for the next 3 months. Will this have any impact as it is just a general injury? And I'm too excited to wait till the plaster is off!!:ohmy: |

I'll have a look at that website Thanks again loadsa luv Sal :wub: |
