Medical into Fully Swing!

So I have started my medical... let me say, I fully understand the frustrations and the time consumption that others have expressed in the past.  I have my dental done completely which is nice (actually I do need one stamp that I forgot).  My medical is another story, the doctor that I am currently seeing to help me with the process does not do all the necessary tests at his office so I have referrals to see three other doctors.  This is annoying because I can not seem to get an appointment with these doctors. I need several things done from a lung test (asthma), I need to get a polio booster shot, and have an allergy test do for penicillin, all three are done with different doctors. I did have my blood drawn on Thursday and a TB test,  so on Monday I should know if the hard part of the test is good or not.  This process is stressful though, I want to get everything too them asap since my tenative departure date is in december so they should push my medical through quickly.  Also, I am doing all this while I am working full time, thank goodness for my understanding management, they are a blessing and are very supportive of me through everything.
