Hgb
Hi,all
I just want to ask if any of you has same situation as me or some one who can explain my situation.
My first Hgb result was 12.99g/dl which was in normal range but they asked me to redo my Hgb test again because it's out of their range. ?? I think that It is really strange because from my CBC result it showed that my blood size(MCV) are too big. I've searched on internet and found out that I might have anemia caused by Vitamin b12 deficiency. but I was surprise that they did not ask me to re do my MCV test but Hgb. so I had my CBC done again and the second result shows that I have Hgb 13.18 g/dl but still big blood cells. I hope It will not be a problem but I'm pretty worried because I do not know anyone that have problem like me.

Hgb and MCV
I would like to say that I did not obtain a medical clearance because my MCV was lower than a normal range, I had three times to repeat my CBC, but it was always from 78 - 82.4 minimum is 83.00.
If your MCV is too high, it means that you have problems with vitamin B.... I was disapointed, because for specialists in Croatia I was fit for duty, because other values showing iron, like HBG and iron were in normal range, and for them there was no problem, but anyway I was rejected....
So I advice you to visit specialists and try to solve any problem what you have, even if it seems to be fine for your doctors in your country.

high MCV
Topgun, Did they ask you to repeat MCV which was the problem or something else? For me they ask me to repeat Hgb whichwas not the problem.
I do not know If I will pass medical or not. I'm thinking about taking Vb12 pill. Hope next blood test will be ok(If they ask me to redo it again).

Luggage ...
Hi there !
I just got my medical clearance , and i'm booked to travel on 22nd May 2009 . I have some questions about my luggage ..
I know that I have till 100kg of allowed cargo .
But about my suits , do you know if I can take them as hand luggage ??? ( not to get it destroyed in the luggage locker during the flight. )
Furthermore , I play tennis , and have a thermobag ( a bag as big as professional players have ) .Do you think I can take it as a hand luggage ( equipments are fragile) , or as a normal luggage ???
Thanks .

Medicals
Hi
I am also tentativly booked to fly from MAN in April, i cant see this happening either!! i went with the short term medical. I have sent all my blood test results and xray but i have now been asked to provide a medical report on my kidneys because they have damage to them because of multiple urine infections, which i declared when asked if i was currently taking any medication. I have also been asked to provide a urine test and report, this would be OK but my Doctor is being a pain and has said he can not write the medical report. Dont Know what to do my doctor has been a pain throughout the whole process!! has anyone else found any problems whilst trying to complete the medicals for qatar airways? xx

Your doctor probably isnt suitable for writing a report,because you need to see a specialist,probably urologist or something like that! They want to confirm that eveything is ok with your kidneys! Hope this helps!
