I live near warrington7 years ago I showed up latent TB bones.

Now I seem to have started off again in hip ankle and knee.They don't think it's that as it cured on itself last time. But I have concerns. Where would I get tested for this. Can't seem to find on net.

Hi Minka - I'm sorry that I have only just spotted this post. Have you had any progress on this? You can get referred for testing through your GP or you can refer yourself directly by speaking to the chest/respiratory department of you local major hospital.

Best wishes,

Helen

I would definitely talk to a GP or directly to a respiratory nurse at your local hospital then.
