I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. In most people who breathe in tb germs and become infected, the body is able to fight the tb germs to stop them from growing. The tb germs become inactive, but they remain alive in the body and can become active later. This is called latent tb infection, or ltbi for short. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
