The doctors are checking all of her family members just to know if they catched the disease from her.
Yesterday, I got a letter in my mail saying that they were going to offer me free TB skin test in school. I didn't go yesterday because I got the lettter later on the day.
Should I just go there tomorrow and get test, although I have a class during that time?

Take your letter from the school to the school nurse, as soon as you get to school. She will, probably, take you to the Health Dept to get tested. It is possible that the Dept only does T.B. testing on certain days, so, don't be surprised if the nurse tells you that you need to wait a day or so. If school is still open, you could call the nurse, now. Do make certain that you DO get tested. It is important. Very important.

Yes, since you got the letter, it is important that you be tested. There is treatment, so don't panic about the disease. Good luck.

If you have spent a considerable amount of time with your friend it would be a good idea to just in case. Better safe than sorry. Also you have to think of your other friends your around and especially your family.
