Many people who have latent TB infection never develop TB disease. In these people, the TB bacteria remain inactive for a lifetime without causing disease. But in other people, especially people who have a weak immune system, the bacteria become active, multiply, and cause TB disease.
好像cdc的guideline在2018年变了。以前皮试或者血检阳性,xray阴性,不用上报cdc也不用吃药。现在必需上报cdc,医生也会开药。不过不知道是不是必须吃。cdc网站上面自己写着latent tb不影响绿卡申请。这是原话:“Inform the applicant of their LTBI diagnosis, that this must be reported to the health department, and that treatment is important to prevent the development of TB disease in the future, but that this is not required to complete the status adjustment process.”
不是的 latent tb infection不影响移民。医生会马上签字的。但是可能同时会建议你去吃药。active tb才不能马上签字。 移民局网站原文说了latent tb不治疗也不影响提交绿卡申请。“Q. What if my skin test is positive and my chest x-ray is normal? A. If you are diagnosed with Class B, Latent TB infection, the civil surgeon may recommend you go to the health department for further assessment and preventative treatment. However, it is only recommended (not required) that you get assessed by the local health department. The civil surgeon can immediately sign Form I-693 and give it to you in a sealed envelope provided that all other examinations are up-to-date, and you can be medically cleared for immigration purposes prior to the referral to the health department TB control program.”
父母年纪很大了,药物又对肝脏伤害很大 请问有没有办法不吃呢? 医生或者卫生局会来检查吗? 感谢大家帮忙 对了忘记说是加州 加州的同学说说是必吃吗? 其它州好像不要求
是latent的 不是active 没有传染性的
哦,那就不用吃,而且也不会要求吃药啊。我父母也是,医生不要求吃药的。
不active的话可以不吃,没事的。
请问你父母在哪个州做的体检呢? 也是加州吗?
是的
我们移民体检的医生劝我父母吃药,但也说x光照片没事就不会影响移民。
但是最后不吃也不影响吗?
我们医生说是不影响。我们才提交一个多月,还没出结果
吃不吃没人监督。定时去取药,到时会有机构打电话过来问吃完了吗,你答吃完了就好。
谢谢分享
父母已经确诊肺结核了,孩子还想着不吃药
不好意思 是我没说清楚 不是确诊肺结核 只是latent TB 就是潜在结核 但是没有传染性 也没有任何咳嗽发烧的症状
这种情况以后万一需要用激素或者免疫抑制剂就很大可能会激活, 还是不要大意
大家都不太懂,你懂就多说几句啊
如果只是阳性,可能是打了卡介苗。 这时要照肺或者抽血,如果还是有问题,就要吃药。 这跟肝损害没有冲突。 美国药物管理严,不会给你吃对肝损害很厉害的药物(不排除一定副作用)
当然会定期要求你父母去检查,而且检查的地方都是穷人去的政府的医院或门诊,超级脏和乱。我去过一次都害怕死了。
是的。下面也有层主说吃了药血检还是阳性。那这样以后真的变active,反而不能用一线药了,岂不是更糟糕? 还有父母有了绿卡也还是要往返中美的,回国呆的时间会很多。按cdc规定,在中国这样的tb大国呆上几个月,血检阳性就要吃药。那他们这次吃完药不管是转阴了还是继续阳性,回国后再过来,就得再次吃药?而且一线药吃过了,又要换药?所以现在吃药完全没必要,就算不是为了应付体检,而是为了他们自己的健康,都没必要。
这个是痰检测是要xray有问题才order的吧。主要是看是不是真的有active tb。如果xray肺部没任何问题,肯定不是active tb吧。没必要order 痰检测。这个痰检测只能查肺部是不是有active的结核菌,不能查其他地方有没有潜伏的。

中国是tb大国。人在中国都是时不时在接触active TB和LTBI的,只不过大家不查就不知道罢了
我看网上说中国30%都是latent tb infection,全世界也是30%
吃药就好了,每月查一次血,吃几个月就好了。我也吃过,没什么问题。潜伏性的如果以后身体不好了发病很难治的。
我就是这个意思。比率这么高,那就是人人都在跟LTBI接触呗。
