Is TB ( Tuberculosis ) a big deal?


Hi, I got a proposal to marry a girl who was treated for TB (Tuberculosis ) two years back. She has been tested positive with skin/blood test and also with CT Scan. I faintly remember she quoting me that she had some symptoms of TB in her skin as well. All this means she had active TB right? then she underwent medication for 6 months and got TB cured.

Is it safe for me to marry her?
Does she carry a significant chance of TB relapse? Does she stand a higher chance of TB relapse compared to someone with latent TB with no TB disease history?

Is there any relation between pregnancy and active TB or TB medication? Would there be any issues during pregnancy / or for the baby?

Please Advise. Thanks for your help.

if this is your only concern, she can do much better than you.

all's i know about that is in Moulin Rouge...Satine dies from TB

Tb is a serious illness with long term issues. If you want to marry her, you may want to do some research to see if she is the right person for you. If she is incapable of attaining some of the goals of your relationship, you will have to either accpet her for what she is or seek a more suitable mate.

since she had been seen by a doctor and got medications for it i guess....your the only one whose making a big deal out of it....if you really love her and want to marry her of whoever and whatever she is this won't be a big deal for you but the way i look at it is...your making a big deal about it. if just because she has TB and you can't stand it and has a whole bunch of question marks in your head much better as early as possible make up your mind on marrying her rather giving her a hard time in life living with you when you have this questions and the feeling of not accepting her of what she is... so better make a decision for yourself rather than asking our opinion.
