I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. You may need to be admitted to a hospital for 2 to 4 weeks to avoid spreading the disease to others until you are no longer contagious. Your doctor or nurse is required by law to report your tb illness to the local health department. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
