Hi guys,
My parents did their medicals 2 days ago. Unfortunately my dad was referred to a cardiologist due to irregular heartbeat. Got the report from the Cardiologist and he was diagnosed of Atrial Fibrillation with regular ventricular response[/i] and was prescribed Digoxin. He's asymptomatic and we were all surprised finding out he has this condition.
Does anyone here know or have an idea if this will affect their application? There's no list of medical conditions for medical inadmissibility and I'm concerned they might deny our application.
Thanks in advance.
Medical Test for Parents
Chapter 4 and in particular section 4.7 of the handbook will give you details of the medical examination.
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/publications/dmp-handbook/
in Section 4.6 the have the following items that i am worried about
Prolonged medical treatment and/or repeated hospitalization for any reason, including a major operation or mental illness
Diabetes
Heart condition including coronary disease, hypertension, valve or congenital disease
Screen for signs or symptoms and presence of end-organ damage. Urinalysis, serum creatinine (eGFR if abnormal) and HbA1c; regardless of age
my parents are Diabetic and have high Blood Pressure
I am worried very much, they need my support, and my kid need my support,
if my parents do not get immigration, i need to go back to India
these folks have been dragging the file for close to Five to six years and now they are going to fail on medical ground
I understand your frustration
Please share you findings
