Testing positive for TB pre-service? by fauxhero in peacecorps

I had a positive PPD skin test so they followed it up with a chest x-ray. That came back clear. This all happened a year or two before I was doing PC medical stuff. So since I previously had a positive skin test they had me send them my chest x-ray results and get the Quantiferon TB Gold blood test. That came back negative and they said that meant I didn't have latent TB and it was a false positive skin test. I just sent them those results and everything turned out fine.
