Stupid Urgent care
Tried to get my annual TB skin test and the PA at the urgent care that I use came up with this stupid article that he said the TB test can cause a reaction with people that are on Tamoxifen so he wouldn't give it to me. I called my Dr and she said she never heard of it. I read the article he presented. I think he just read the title, the article present a women who had been exposed to TB twice and developed it in her uterus while on Tamoxifen. It had nothing to do with the TB skin test. Now I have to go to another place and get it done. Stupid thing is that they gave it to me last year.

Re: Stupid Urgent care
Why do you need an annual TB skin test?
Certainly not done routinely in Australia. We do a quantiferon blood test for people doing jobs where they may be exposed to TB and monitor that. Aussie Girl |
