Well, after the wait for the result of my medical exam, last week, I received a call from the designated clinic saying that I had some findings with my stool (due to my history of Typhoid fever) 
According to them, I need to see a specialist at Makati Medical Center for the treatment and once clearance is obtained, they can submit my papers to the embassy.
A couple of days after the call, I went to see the doctor at Makati Med. He advised me to undergo a 4 week antibiotic treatment for Salmonella. I was shocked!
Four long weeks!
I asked the doctor if it’s possible to shorten the time because I have a deadline of departure. He smiled and said that after 2 weeks of the antibiotic, I can go and have my stool re-checked at any laboratory, clinic or hospital and once the result is negative, he can give me the clearance. 
I was thankful. Although I won’t be able to make it to the May 12 departure, I am still happy that I don’t have to complete the 4 weeks treatment to have my stool exam repeated.
For now, I have to wait for everything to be ok and the waiting game for the visa will start.
Wish me luck!
