Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has experience with tuberculosis. I am potentially going to have a housemate with latent tuberculosis. It is not contagious in this form.
Chances of it becoming active are slim (1-5%), but if it became active it would be very contagious.
Does anyone know anything about the level of risk this poses to someone who is already fighting lyme + babesiosis?
thanks for any thoughts.

I seem to recall Gigi's husband was TB positive. You might do search and see if you can find her thread.
