1. If you have medical insurance, the shot may be covered as a free preventative service.Hello,
The doctor's office called me today to update me about my blood test result. They said that everything is fine but I need to get a td shot in a pharmacy and bring the proof to the office and that I was positive to the tb and that I need to do a chest X-ray.
1. What's the cheapest way to get this shot done.
2. How serious is the tb? Could I be inadmissible if the X-ray results comes up positive?
2. If the X-Ray returns a positive result, you will be required to undergo additional testing (sputum test I believe). If the test indicates you're positive for TB, and are determined to have a Class A condition you will be deemed inadmissible and will be recommended to begin the required treatment immediately. Upon completion of the required treatment, the CS could then reclassify you as Class B condition at that point, you will no longer be deemed inadmissible (because you completed the treat and are no longer deemed infectious).
