Latent Tuberculosis

Had the jab taken on Tuesday and the Skin test (PPD) on thursday. The funny thing is that it turned out to be positive (measured bruise : 2cm in diameter). The docs diagnosed it with Latent Tuberculosis (for whatever reason) after looking through my med records & x-rays. Did an hour-long of med check-up and was forced to attend a counseling session. WTH. I was almost late for my lab session because of that but luckily, there's no midterm exams on that day..phew... Recommended medication : Isoniazid for 9 months . WTH. There's too many side effects with that medication (nausea, no-alcohol consumption, persistent paresthesia, easy bruising yada yada yada...for 9 MONTHS !!) bleh.... no thanks !
