Hi everyone, I follow the various threads about people failing Iqama medical due to Hep issues.
But what about CKD? I once had undetected very high blood pressure 2yrs ago and unfortunately it inflamed my kidneys . Managed to know about it only through a random routine health check. Checked by doctors in my home country and managed to stabilize the blood pressure and reduce the inflammation on my kidneys.
I am now on high blood pressure medication only. No medicine subscribed for CKD.. but docs say damage is done. Doctors say kidney function is weak. Kidney function has been stable ever since it was first detected.
Doc says I'm fit to work as per normal and the weak kidney is just something to take note of. I am to take blood pressure meds everyday.
Will this affect my Iqama medical? It is not contagious but will I fail my Iqama medical?
FYI - I am from a non-Gamca required country and I will be coming in as a senior position in a govt joint-venture company.
Appreciate your help and comments on this. Thank you.
