You could just have a positive test. Have you had your lungs x-rayed? Alot of people test positive for it and have a clean x-ray! I tested pos for it a few years ago and all my x-rays have came back clean! good luck!
2 :
having a + PPD does not mean that you have TB it just means that you have been exposed. Active TB is symptomatic first with a chest xray that shows lungs infiltration then you would have a cough with bloody sputum of phlegm then fever etc.
3 :
I advice to talk to a health professional about your situation.
4 :
I have TB. My doc said it was not a problem. Three kids, no problems. I don't know if you can take the treatment for TB while you are pregnant (probably not). Your baby isn't at risk, but you need to make sure you get the treatment you need when it is appropriate. TB is dangerous if left untreated

Anti TB drugs are usually taken for 6 months. And the Lymph nodes from Tb are not treated by puncturing but with antibiotics. Sympotomatic improve can usually be seen 1-2 months after initiating the AntiTb drugs. If it doesnt resolve by then, you may either be resistant to the antibiotics or it may not be TB. ***TB treatment needs to be 4 drugs not one

The Mormons will mail them a Bible for free...but it comes with a Book of Mormon.
2 :
Get your own Bible.Or go here: http://www.kingjamesbible.com http://www.chick.com
3 :
Contact any of your local churches or hospital chaplain, if they won't help, contact me!! I'll get you one. Praying for you.
4 :
Email me, tell me what translation you would like, and where to send it. I will mail it the next day.
5 :
The Gideons will help. That's what they do - provide Bibles to the community - hotels, hospitals..... Visit them on line at: http://www.gideons.org/Tgi.web/TGI.Web.PublicWebSite/default.aspx You will be able to find the nearest Gideons Organisation nearby.
6 :
HotelCertificate.org is a pretty decent organization in this field of charity. It gives people access to hotel rooms for a limited amount of time, to get hold of the Gideon Bible.
7 :
This is NOT a charity but it a group of people who leave bibles in Motels. IT is called the Gideons. go to a motel and look in the drawer and get the phone # of a Gideon and call them. They give bibles away to everyone. you might consider making a donation to them. God bless you. Also if you have access to the Internet you can look up the bible on it. God bless you!!
8 :
Drug-resistant tuberculosis is commonly found in gay men; There are Christian groups who do provide Bibles through the x-gay channels. Other than that, any Church would be more than happy to give you a free King James Bible.
9 :
Contact the American Bible Society. http://www.bibles.com/
10 :
Drug resistant tuberculosis is not just common amongst gay men. Drug resistance figures for men, women, straight, gay are almost the same. Resistance to anti-TB drugs can occur when these drugs are misused or mismanaged. Examples include when patients do not complete their full course of treatment; when health-care providers prescribe the wrong treatment, the wrong dose, or length of time for taking the drugs; when the supply of drugs is not always available; or when the drugs are of poor quality
