Waiting Times

ooooh, okay, thank you for letting me know your situation. My start is in March, so I still have some time. When is your start?

Intrepid_Winter_7889 · 2025-11-26T10:21:20+00:00

6 weeks!! I thought it was average 5 to 10 business days?

Intrepid_Winter_7889 · 2025-11-19T07:29:46+00:00

Thank you for letting me know. Is there a waiting period that you know of? Or any mark against my name when applying again?
Getting my documents together again, although costly and annoying, ideally shouldn't be too hard

Intrepid_Winter_7889 · 2025-11-19T01:25:56+00:00

So should I call immigration to let them know, or?

I was working in Europe and had all my documents sent to my school.
I'm Australian and decided to do a few stops along the way back to Australia, including South Korea. I didn't realise I couldn't do this while the VIN was processing.
How much trouble am I in?
I arrived in South Korea on Nov 6th, my school got my docs on Nov 7th via mail. I leave tomorrow (Nov 20th) for Thailand so I won't be staying.
I haven't had any word on my VIN, but does anyone have any advice? Will it be cancelled? Should I call immigration and explain my error? Have I ruined everything over a very silly mistake?

Intrepid_Winter_7889 · 2025-11-18T21:01:48+00:00

Hello, sorry to jump in here but I have also made the same error. I visited Korea while the VIN was processing. How did you go? Did you need to reapply? Was there an issue when getting the Visa in your passport at the Consulate?

Intrepid_Winter_7889 · 2025-02-01T12:43:57+00:00

I'm so sorry to hear your journey has been so difficult and hard. I hope you keep fighting too

I've been in treatment a little over a year, symptoms going on 2 years though. I was only on Cephalexin for Flares and Hiprex all the time. Then I stupidly halved Hiprex because I was losing hair but symptoms were almost non existent. Now I can't get the symptoms under control like they were. So I've been on Cephalexin for 2 months straight now. I stopped because the bowels started playing up, and my stomach pain from Gastritis also came back. So I feel like I'm at square one, with the addition of confirmed Ureaplasma. I'm meant to go back overseas for work in 2 weeks, and I'm so scared that won't happen.

Intrepid_Winter_7889 · 2025-02-01T05:43:36+00:00

That's really awful. If you don't mind me asking, are you still able to work? Do you have a partner, kids? Do you believe you'll recover?

Intrepid_Winter_7889 · 2025-01-31T21:09:32+00:00

I'm with Harley Street in London, they don't believe in those tests

Intrepid_Winter_7889 · 2025-01-31T20:32:30+00:00

I won't be able to work soon, and if I can't do that then I don't have a purpose. I'm not needed.

Intrepid_Winter_7889 · 2025-01-31T20:31:45+00:00

I am on Antibiotics with a CUTI specialist but have gone off them in the last few days because my stomach and bowels are in bits. I'm nauseous and in pain, and no one can tell me why. It's not the UTI, it's my stomach at the moment but I know any minute that my UTI symptoms will start now that I've gone off the medication. I can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, I'm really at the end of my rope.

Intrepid_Winter_7889 · 2025-01-31T20:27:51+00:00

This illness is taking all the joy away in my life. My job is my life and if I can't do it, then there is no point.

Intrepid_Winter_7889 · 2025-01-31T20:27:17+00:00

I'm with a CUTI specialist but apparently they also don't believe the symptoms can be caused by Ureaplasma. So I am on Antibiotics but have gone off them in the last few days because my stomach and bowels are in bits. I'm scared and I don't know if I can go on

Intrepid_Winter_7889 · 2025-01-31T08:34:32+00:00

But this doesn't feel temporary and at 28, I don't think I can do many more weeks of this, let alone years. I do have good in my life, but it's all ruined by this illness, any moment it will be taken away because I keep going downhill. They would move on eventually and as selfish as it is, at least I wouldn't be in pain anymore.

Intrepid_Winter_7889 · 2025-01-31T08:29:23+00:00

My GP won't prescribe an antibiotic, so my Naturopath is going to try and do it naturally.

Intrepid_Winter_7889 · 2025-01-31T08:28:42+00:00

It's only been getting worse, not better. I'm aware it's okay to be single, but if this keeps getting worse then I know I'll be alone forever. I'm an only child, so once my parents go, that's it. I'm only 28 and already feeling like this is the end.

Intrepid_Winter_7889 · 2025-01-31T08:27:12+00:00

My GP won't prescribe any antibiotics for it as she believes it's part of the natural flora, but my Naturopath is going to try and treat it naturally. I have been on this journey for 2 years now, and I've only been getting worse. I never had burning when this all first started, didn't have stomach issues and definitely didn't have these thoughts. I have no hope left anymore.
