I think you should let them know that you are taking immunosupressants. there should be someone there who will be able to give answers and take medical responsibility over it.

ID specialists should know if when and how PPD should be administered and when it is advisable to avoid it.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. There isn't anyone there who will know. It's just an RN at one of my worksites. There aren't any docs there. I need the test in order to work at a health care facility--it's a state reg. What's an ID specialist? Infection disease specialist? I'll try calling one of my docs on Monday and see if they can tell me, although I'm not all that hopeful that they'll know either!

Thanks Alice
MK
