Hi Tashmim,

I'm afraid that I don't know the answer to that question as I am not a medical professional. I can only give general advice and support around TB.

Is this something that you feel you can talk over with your GP or TB Nurse? They are there to help and will keep any conversation confidential.

You could also try the British Pregnancy Advisory Service (bpas). Their helpline is open 24 hours a day on 03457 30 40 30 or you can email them on info@bpas.org.

I hope you get the answers you need with these suggestions.

best wishes,

Helen
