Medical Check changes since the first of October?

Hi,

I came here over a month ago and I am still chasing the administration of my company to get the medical check. They say there has been changes to the system since the 01/10/2011 and now everything should go through the governmental system. That is why I have to be patient as it takes more time than before now.

I am kinda not believing them 100%, and I think they might have done something wrong with my documents or just overwhelmed by the load of work they have.

They keep saying come next week and I am getting pissed off because of that. My visa runs out on 10/12. What happens if they do not manage to get me an appointment before that date? Am I allowed to have an extension? Will they kick me out of the country?
