and you should know that TB is one of the biggest threats around
as far as drug-resistant diseases around..
and it is very contagious too..
still, it's insane.. after a couple of years there, they still
need these tests? 
and.. you being in the medical profession too!
Precisely!!!
When I called up the clinic, as instructed in the letter, they
seemed surprised I called them and said to 'wait for another
letter', which took a good 2 weeks to reach me. I told them
I'm alarmed that I'm being called up for a TB check and they said
it's very 'routine' and 'common'. Tamade... if I didn't know
any better, if I were some migrant from an undeveloped country, I'd
be pissing in my pants being stressed up for two entire weeks,
wondering if I'm dying of TB or Lung Ca or what-not!
When I called them to bring forward my appt from the 13th of
March to today, I received a 2nd letter saying that I've not shown
up for the original check-up, and I have to turn up today!
Yeah... I missed my appointment on the
13th of March... so shoot me! 
I felt like it was some Back to the Future
thing!
If they send me some funny mix-up letter saying I've got TB when
I do not, I'm going to sue their pants off for the undue stress
they've subjected me to, and use the money to pay the deposit for a
house! Yeah... come on... make that mistake!!
