Karan08 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Long story short i have finished my tb treatment last month and going for a health examination. Due to being on tb treatment and visa and financial issues i was bit worried and overthinking so 3 months ago my gp put me on ssri for my overthinking and mild anxiety. After i finished my treatment my anxiety disappeared completely but now i have to give my health exam and there is a question If i have or do i suffer from mental health?? What should i say- yes or no? And do i take any medication?? How will it effect my medical test?? Anyone who has some knowledge Please help because i dont want to do make any mistake.

mt9754 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Honesty is always the best policy, it's always better to give too much information than too little. I'm sure they'll want you to explain the details and they can decide if it's important or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it says i have to say yes if i was on extensive treatment?? Thats why i am confused Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulhand Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 If in doubt, always say yes, and explain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calNgary Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 I wouldn't say your treatment was extensive or enough to cause you problems with a visa grant but i do think it needs to be mentioned somewhere on your form / report.

Jelly Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 As mentioned, be open and honest. My wife was on anti-depressants for a while, so we said yes to that question. At the medical, the doctor asked a couple of questions about it and said it's nothing to worry about. We got our visa granted a few weeks ago. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
