Hi Dr.

My husband was suffered from Tb last 2013, The findings on his x-ray were signs of Tb on his left upper lobe but there's no any spot found on his lungs. The doctor prescribed him a medicine for 6 months. Now he is totally cured, fine and healthy. I am afraid if he will go abroad and will undergo for medical. Is there any chance that his finding on his x-ray the TB signs can be disappeared?




Dear Leea,
It is possible that after completing your anti tubercular treatment findings on the chest xray should disappear. So for this you can go for a chest xray to find it out.
