I passed! Woohoo!
Because I'm going to live here longer than 6 months, I needed to get a health exam.
What did they find? Everything is normal! What a relief!
For the blood tests they looked for (and found nothing I might add).
Anti-HIV
Syphilis Serology
HBsAg
Anti-HCV
HBsAb
HBeAg
HBeAb
HBcAb
Google tells me the HB stuff is for Hepatitis. So is HCV but thats Hep C. I'm guessing 'Anti' means they are looking for antibodies against the listed infections. Why am I sharing all of this with you? I don't know, maybe it will shed some light on people coming to China on what kind of tests to expect. Actually, I'm just too tired to post any pictures so I had to think of something to write about.

Having lived here nearly three years I've had to go through this a couple of times and for some reason it freaks me out each time. Always good to know you don't have siphyllis though! :-) I was more worried about the effects of 3 years of Chinese beer, cigarettes and baijiu :-)
