Medical Re-take

[majc2213]

Has anyone had to retake a medical, i have to retake mine due to an injury that prevented me doing the prmc. i was just wondering whether the medical is only focused towards the injured area eg lower legs? as ive already passed one

I had to retake mine to, had to go all the way to london to see a specialise and hav an x-ray, somin to do with my hips, everythink is sound now.
I wouldn't worry about to much, There probably just going to make sure.

did the doctor do anything different from your first medical at all ?

[wato212]

ye, because it was only my hips that was the problem thats all that was checked, just a few questions and flexibillty tests, thats it.

I've been told when i go back i only need tog et my leg rechecked everything els is fine.

Medical involvs a urine sample check for protiens, glucose ect ect. eye site, hearing, measure your chest when breathing in and out, get you to blow on a pipe then get your blood pressure and heart rate checked. Then you get taken to see a docter gets you to take all your clothes off and gives you ful body check heart, joints ect apart from that asks you a whole load of piss easy questions family illness's ect, prepare to wait though its with the NHS i was waiting 2 hours with the lads that went for it before any of us got seen.
