Hello all,
Does anyone have first or second hand experience of the effect on the medical of having had a melanoma in the past?
If a melanoma was caught and removed at the very earliest stages, and blood tests etc had given the all-clear, would it still be an automatic 'fail' and need a medical waiver?
And likewise, any experience of waivers having been issued for this in the context of a Partnership stream application for PR?
(I have already seen the useful info linked from this forum in the Operations manual on how to decide what is considered a 'burden' - thanks!)
