Here is the list we received of recommended tests at homecoming:

Hepatitis B screen, including Hepatitis B surface antigen, Hepatitis B surface antibody, and Hepatitis B core antibody
Hepatitis C screen
HIV ELISA and/or PCR screen
Complete blood count
Lead level
RPR or VDRL
TSH, preferably state metabolic screen
Tuberculosis
Urinalysis
Diphtheria and Tetanus antibodies and Polio neutralizing titers (not complement fixation titers)
Immunization titers

Rainbow Children's Hospital in Cleveland has an adoption clinic. You might try calling them. Hopefully you can get some more consulation recommendations as well.

Good luck!
