i think chest xrays are only for obvious cases. pretty sure it can stay dormant in your body for a long time so they check blood first. either way, congrats.



so you're tellin me that even though you tested positive on the skin test you didnt have to take INH because the blood test came back negative?
cuz the doctor never gave me a blood test. he just said i had to take INH

Be careful on that stuff. I had a buddy, whose a doctor, and it caused some seriously messed up side effects. He almost lost his freakin mind. Serious mood problems and depression issues and he knew exactly what to take to help with side effects. I would definately double check. I had a false positive and went to him for advice. He made me get a second test.

yes, my skin test was positive and I was scared shitless that I had TB b/c I had been in Africa in the last year. They made me take a blood test and it came back negative. This was at the LSU health center, so no guarantees on my case.
