I've got TB or tuberculosis when I was in my junior high school years. I was been cured for 6 months, almost in bed, for a long-session therapy. My therapy was succesful so as I have been cured. But after 3 years ( I was in my freshmen college years ), my TB is re-occuring again. This is my second therapy that covers also 6 months. Luckily, I was been cured through right intake of prescribed medicine and rest.
My question is....
1. Does TB always comes back to me after many years pass by even though Im cured?
2. Does it affects my job placement?
3. Why is it that TB always comes back? what's the reason?
Please...can u help me...For God's sake..
I could not go to the doctor because I have no enough money.
Can u give me some advice relating to these..
Thank you very much...God Bless...

Go to your town's state board of health they will treat your TB for free.They will give you INH are another medication to treat it.
If you don't have the money to see a doctor how do you know that the TB has come back? You may have another lung infection that may mimic TB.
TB has stated to become drug resistance and has mutated so there is more than one strain of it now.
You need to get to the state board of health ASAP as it is very infective and can spread through your community fast.
Yes it can effect many of the jobs you might try to get especially any in the health profession.
As for it always coming back, you may have become a carrier or you might still be in contact with someone who has it but doesn't know it or is a carrier but has no symtoms and is re-infecting you.
Just get to the state board of health ASAP they will help you.
Good Luck!

Contact the state dept of health and you might be able to get medial help at no charge. The last thing they need is an epedemic of TB.No guaranttee, but all it costs is a phone call.
Good luck.
