I found a place that has it. It's an hours drive, which is manageable if necessary.

What do you think about having an xray done instead?

Also, one lab that I called said they do a urine test. Do you think that would work?

Xrays cause harm too - I would get the blood draw

Urine test - never heard of that one.

After further discussions with the school, I think we will skip the tb test. If they push it further down the road, I'll discuss urine with my dr or else go the blood root.

The school is willing to accept her as long as she meets the health dept. criteria, and the health dept. there has requested that her records be faxed over (her original exemption forms).

The school is a boarding school with kids from all over the world, so they've cautioned me regarding the possibility of some of the kids coming in carrying who knows what illnesses. -Kathy
