Dear friends,

I have an appointment next week with a civil surgeon for my medical exam. I have read that for the TB test you have to come back in 48 hours. Is it true? It really sucks since my civil surgeon is more that 2 hours away so i will miss two days of work :hehe:

Yeah unfortunately you have to come back two days after your initial exam to have the TB test completed.

They will inject a small amount of fluid just under your skin on your first day. You then have to come back 2 days later for them to see how much of a reaction you have.

Unfortunately If you have a red bump that is more than 5mm? high you then have to have a chest x-ray ($75+/-) done to confirm you don't have TB.

Your reaction to the skin test will depend on whether you received a live culture (BCG) TB vaccine as a child.

Good Luck!
