Hi everyone, I'm in the midst of applying for a non-immigrant OA visa in my home country. One of the requirements is a medical certificate stating that I have to be free from the following illnesses:

1. Leprosy

2. Tuberculosis (TB)

3. Elephantiasis

4. Drug addiction &

5. Third step of syphilis

My question is has anyone had the experience of undergoing all the tests mentioned above? Not sure how to test for leprosy. TB can be by x-ray or PCR test. The other 3 should be by blood test. Can I get my family doctor to fill out the attached form and have him certify I'm free from all the above? When I submit my application, will they want to see the x-ray and blood test results or will they just accept the doctor's certification to be good? Thanks in advance for any helpful replies.

What is the best way is for an American to get the tests for the 5-year visa?

When I mention it to doctors they usually laugh. [Must NOT have prohibitive diseases (Leprosy, Tuberculosis, drug addiction, Elephantiasis, third phase of Syphilis)].
