Hey everyone
I have Crohn's disease since 10 years now but have been completely fine since my first flare.
Back then I took Azathioprine for 5 years - which is still accepted as medication on Immigration.govt.nz -> not too serious or too expensive itself.
No surgery needed yet.
As i have been completely fine and in Remission the last few years, I wonder how much trouble my disease could cause me.
My blood shouldn't show anything except of maybe low iron, which is somewhat normal for a lot of women and for IBD patients.
All I have is a last coloscopy report from a few years ago that was completely fine back then (minor irregularities but they would have not seen I had IBD
pathology stated).
Also I went to a specialist for an ultrasound the other week for a pre-check of my Emigration. All good down there.
Now how do I prepare best for the Medical and for the MA that my Information will be sent to ?
Should I get my first diagnosis papers, that old last coloscopy report and that current sonography ready (and translated) ?
Will that be enough, as they can see i am doing fine and my bloods are ok?
I haven't had blood done since i stopped the medication back then as i didn't even feel my diseaseĀ Will they ask for more Information
from the last few years even if I state there is None as i haven't been to the doctors?
Do you guys know if they tend to Keep digging or accept the Information if I bring as much as possible and if it Looks good (+ prognosis good and such).
Or is there a way they can access my saved health data from the last few years - for me to proof?
I live in Germany though and can't imagine they would be allowed to do that :/
Very Looking Forward to Responses and experiences
About to make the appointment for the medical soon,
after thinking on how to make me seem as healthy as I am
I am a bit worried of spending all that Money and Energie just to get denied in the end...
Any IBD People also please contact me if you want !
Oh forgot to say: I am applying for partnership based Residency.
I think i will Need a Limited Medical but couldn't find a difference to the General except of Urine...?
Cheers!
