Sputum culture results are now available

[Terpe]

Hello all
Well it looks like that TB X-ray and sputum test has come back to haunt us
Earlier on I reported that it was clear but, this not so now.
It seems that the X-ray still shows a little bit of mucus in the right lung the first TB team did not spot this until the put the X-ray on a CD and enlarge it to have it viewed on the computer. So to be on the safe side my wife has to have further sputum test and to continue with the medication for at least another 4 months. Thank heavens this was spotted in time as my wife now has a better chance to be totally cured of this disease Although the 1st sputum test was not conclusive, the TB clinic is not taking any chances
So whatever happens? We just have to wait

Sorry to learn of yet another delay for the visa application, but as you say, the big positive is that your wife will be treated and monitored.
Good luck and thanks for the update.
