Done with 9mos tb treatment. had xray & its normal. no tb symptoms ever since. mine is latent tb. how come tb gold test is positive? am i still sick?

TB +: Your TB test will always stay positive. It just means you have been exposed to TB- not that you do or do not have the active disease. http://www.questdiagnostics.com/home/physicians/testing-services/by-test-name/quantiferon

While TB-Gold or: QuantiFERON testing has contributed to accurate diagnosis of active and latent TB, it can not be used to determine if treatment has been adequate or inadequate. QuantiFERON measures a cellular immune response to the tuberculosis organism; this immune response often remains positive after successful treatment. If you completed therapy, have normal x-ray, your doctor has likely declared you well:)
