One step closer to starting Remicade.
I had to get a TB skin test, for which I went last Tuesday and today went back for them to tell me that I didn't have TB.......or so I thought. No, I don't have TB, BUT, now I might have to have a chest x-ray. I had no reaction to the skin test, but because I'm on Immuran (immune suppressant), it could give the test a false reading....what!?! So then, why not have me just go get a chest x-ray??!! and skip the skin test?!! Some times I wonder about our medical system. Not all of it, just some of it.
Hopefully, because I had an x-ray back on June 1st in hospital, I might not have to get another one....BUT, with my luck.....
