Got into Houston yesterday via British Airways (I choose them cos I intend to stop over in London on my return trip).

I got to the airport in Nigeria early and didn't have any issues checking it. Was only requested for my fitness to fly which and I gave them a copy.

Requested for wheelchair chair service


but didn't use it in Nigeria. Started using in from London.

When I arrived Houston, there were some old people who couldn't really walk on the flight but didn't request for wheelchair chair. As the wheelchairs brought to the door of the aircraft were less one of the attendants operating the wheelchairs said you could just keep walking until another one comes., I said no as I couldn't walk and she asked 'you're having the baby now'? I replied her and said what kind of silly question is that.

Anyway I eventually got into the wheelchair and was taken straight to the front of the long que.

Cpb- what's the purpose of your trip
Me- vacation and medical attention
Cpb - are you sick?
Me- no, I'm pregnant.
I was sent for secondary inspection afterwards and after about 30mins, one of the officers called me and asked if I had a contacted a Dr. I said yes and handed over my email correspondence.

After studying it for about 5mins she hands it back to me, stamps me in for 6 months and tells me to keep all my receipts.

I proceeded to get my luggage(I had already discharged the wheelchair attendant at this time as it was becoming awkward remaining on it)

As I declared some food items, I was sent to Agriculture. all my indomie spices were seized as I had removed them from the pack. One of the lady officers insisted it was chicken indomie that's why I removed them from the packs. I asked her what I was going to do with indomie without spices and she said I shouldn't have taken them from the packs. I insisted that, thats how I always traveled with my indomie but doe where.....

My rice was also seized.

Every other thing like my palm oil, dry fish, dried Bush meat, all shades of Maggi, crayfish, starch, cabin biscuit, milo, milk, ogbono, egusi, spices, canned banga etc went tru.

I have settled in with soulcare (good choice). Got to town via super shuttle. Paid 56 dollars. Was taken for groceries as soon as I got in.

That's my POE story.

Any idea on how I can't eat my indomie?

firsttymum:
sorry for your loss....
UK? Infected CS site... Wow.

Some negligence shld also b blamed on some
Patients... Some patients over sabi is too much ... They'll try all other means like self medication, advice from people before coming to the hospital.
And some patients can lie... Lie about everything.. What's even for their own good.

akbend medical center n whmc

bigfido:
you usually pay $500 for doctor Glenn as deposit before they send you their acceptance letter. they will later deduct it from your final balance as it is part of the doctor's fee you are supposed to pay. I am wondering why theirs no much talk about northwest houston medical center. The quotation from them is very fair from my calculation. Congrats firstymum and everyother person with great POE stories.

FinanceFitness:
Done this twice - never been asked!
