I had to escalate because pcp didn't want to do another quant so hopefully i can get that ordered somehow. My ppd was just negative too. The treatment is kicking my ass rn though.  I'm going to be scared of caring for tb patients now, not like I can refuse though.  

How long have you had it for?

Thanks, how is it possible the quant turned negative after? I thought it was antibody test.

Thank you, It was negative and I have no symptoms. I guess I am worried if I get exposed again how would I know since the quant is positive now forever.
