I'm going to start my new job next week and I suppose there's no escape on medical check-up. So I went to Medijaya clinic SS21 for the checks. They took a urine sample, there was an eye sight test, hearing test, and I think it was a blood pressure test? When they wrap that thing around your arm and start pumping it...feels good ^^ So when it comes to blood test, creeps me out. The doc told me to look away if I'm afraid of needles and I did. Is not that I'm afraid of pain, is just that I hate to see those needles stuck in my skin...ouch
Medical checks on the following:
1)Height
2)Weight
3)Eyesight (including colour blindness)
4)Chest Xray
5)Take urine sample for drug test.
6)Take blood sample test for hepatitis b and HIV.
Wow, I did my own BMI test ... and it seems that I almost overweight ...
A BMI of 24.3 is exactly within the recommended range of 18.5 to 24.9. This range is considered to be that most conducive to good health. Try to keep your weight in this range and get plenty of exercise, eat a nutritious diet and get adequate sleep to maintain your health.
Hehe... I am in normal range. ^_^
I don't think it's wise to escape a medical check-up. As much as the blood test creeps you out, it is vital to know the status of your overall health. The idea may sicken you, but it is all for the best. And it will prove how fit you are for the job. By the way, I hope the result did favor you, and you are now doing well in the company.
