Personal Journey on Passing Medical Exam With Lung Scar in UAE

I just want to share my experience here to inspire people who have lungs scars/fibrosis, don't lose hope guys and have tons of Faith in God.

Early 2018 last year, i was very eager to go here in Dubai. I already booked a flight to Bangkok since i don't have relatives here in UAE who will sponsor my visit visa. (Cross country - PH to BKK to DXB), but then one unfortunate event had happened to me. I was diagnosed with PTB last March 2018. Since GAMCA countries are very strict when it comes to X-ray, I lost my hope.

I undergone 6mos medication and had constant check-ups hoping that x-ray results will be cleared but it did not. I still continued my healthy lifestyle despite of densities seen in my X-rays hoping that scars would be gone, but it never happened, until one day i decided to push through with working-in-dubai dream. I undergone general check-up before i went here  (x-ray, whole abdomen ultrasound, blood chem) just to be sure that i don't have any other illness other than lung fibrosis (Yes, still got "fibrosis right upper lung" result in my x-ray). I got here in UAE last April and i immediately applied for work. Since drinking milk is a very common suggestion to hide lung scar in xray (though i haven't tried doing this before), i did it. I drank milk religiously before i go to bed and after waking up and also continuing a healthy lifestyle like exercising, taking vitamins (conzace vitamins in ph) and eating healthy foods.

Fortunately, one company hired me after applying in 2 weeks time upon arriving here in Dubai. So the process here is, one they hired you, it would take almost 2 weeks before the Medical, and so i drank milk for 1 month continuously prior to medical, also i read in other forum that drinking Tomato paste is also effective to hide lung scars. The night before my medical, i jogged, i drank milk, i also drank tomato paste mixed with water and went to bed early. On the day of my medical, i still drink milk and tomato paste afterwards. I tell you guys, my stomach was very very upset that day but i don't care, I am so desperate to pass the X-ray, and of course, i prayed so hard.
(Philippians 4:6-7 do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.)--- "Worrying is a Sin"

--My biggest lesson in this situation is that you should be optimistic and you have to put your faith in God.

After 3 days, the DHA texted me that result will be released soon. I never inquired in our HR about the result because i'm still scared (even though my intuition tells me not to be scared and everything will be fine). 7 days after DHA send me the notification, the HR called me and i was so scared as hell, but to my surprise, when i got in the office, she told me that i have to sign my visa application so that my application will proceed to visa stamping. I am 50% relieved when i hear the "Visa" stamping, and so i asked her since i think it is safe to inquire about the medical result and she said it is all okay and she will process my emirated ID. Then today, I got text from Emirates Post that my ID is ready to collect.

Whoever can relate to this, to those who suffers from anxiety and distress due to lungs scars/fibrosis, i hope you guys will not lose hope and would have the courage to pursue whatever dreams you have. Our faith is bigger than this condition. I will pray for you guys. To God be the Glory!
