Okay, so here is an update for all you that are interested. I had my physical two weeks ago and had my mission forms filled out by my doctor. Well, while I was there, my doctor and I discovered that I have never had my Hepatitis A shot...WHAT?!?!?! Well, this is one of the shots that you get one, then another in 6 months. My physical was on March 2. 6 months from then is Sept 2...right when my availability date for my mission is. THAT was close. Also, the doctor walked in and this was our conversation
Dr. Graham: "Do you normally wear contacts or glasses"
Me: "I have my contacts in right now."
Dr. Graham: "Really? When was your last eye exam?"
Me: "Five months ago."
Dr. Graham "Well, I can sign off on everything, but your vision tested at 20/30 with your contacts in...You need to get another eye exam before you leave."
SOOOO, thanks to my amazing friend, Stephanie, who works at an optometrist's office, I got my vision checked. It has changed 2 steps in 5 months...whatever that means. So, I have new contacts ordered for that. Medical clearance...check!
