2 Tuberculosis (TB) TB Services at Waco McLennan County Public Health District. The Waco-McLennan County Public Health District (WMCPHD) has a team of specially trained staff that can assist in the medical management of clients diagnosed with Tuberculosis (TB). Coordination with the client s primary care physician is vital to ensure that all aspects of the client s health are addressed. WMCPHD staff is trained in contact investigation, direct observation therapy, proper medication management, and overall case management of the client with tuberculosis. TB Skin Testing Tuberculosis skin testing is provided to contacts to cases in the TB clinic and not typically administered on Thursdays since they must be read hours after administration, which would fall on a weekend. Testing may be offered free of charge to persons who have had recent exposure to a person with confirmed, active tuberculosis and in other situations that place them at considerable risk for development of TB disease if infected. Receiving TB Services WMCPHD TB staff can assist with sputum collection, blood work, and ordering of medications and supplies. They also have an excellent rapport with Regional TB experts from Texas Center for Infectious Diseases and UT Tyler and can assist in getting medical consultations for client with drug resistance, adverse drug reactions, and pediatric cases. Persons diagnosed with TB are provided medications free of charge through WMCPHD and the Department of State Health Services (DSHS) Pharmacy. Sputum for detection of acid fast bacilli and culture are also provided free of charge through DSHS in coordination with WMCPHD TB Elimination office. Persons with positive TB skin tests, but no evidence of disease may be referred to WMCPHD clinics for the initiation of treatment for Latent TB infection (LTBI). Medications are offered based on a sliding scale income for the LTBI therapy through our offices; however, services are provided regardless of ability to pay. These medications are provided through the DSHS Pharmacy. Persons who are referred to WMCPHD for LTBI therapy without a physician s prescription will be evaluated for the risk vs. benefit of receiving therapy and the local Health Authority will determine the need for treatment. Additional Resources For more information about TB, LTBI, or drug treatment you can contact our offices at or visit the following websites:

5 Tuberculosis Symptom Questionnaire Name: DOB: Date: Previous PPD skin test results show you to be TB skin test positive. A positive skin test reaction means that sometime in the past you have come into contact with M. tuberculosis, the bacterium that causes tuberculosis (TB). An otherwise healthy person with a positive TB skin has about a 10% lifetime risk of developing active tuberculosis. The risk in the first two years after TB skin test conversion is about 5%. This means that of 100 people whose skin test converts and who do not receive adequate preventive therapy, 5 of them will develop TB during the first 2 years after TB skin test conversion. An immunocompromised person (HIV positive, receiving immunosuppressive or cancer chemotherapy) with a positive TB skin test has a risk that is approximately twice as high for developing active TB. Answer yes or no to the questions; if any answer is yes, give the approximate date the symptoms started and whether or not you still have them. Have you had any of the following symptoms in the past year? 1. Productive cough for 3 weeks or more No Yes Date Still Have? 2. Persistent weight loss without dieting. No Yes Date Still Have? 3. Persistent fever above 100 degrees F No Yes Date Still Have? 4. Night sweats No Yes Date Still Have? 5. Loss of appetite No Yes Date Still Have? 6. Swollen glands in neck or elsewhere No Yes Date Still Have? 7. Recurrent/persistent kidney/bladder infections No Yes Date Still Have? 8. Coughing up blood (hemoptysis) No Yes Date Still Have? 9. Shortness of breath No Yes Date Still Have? 10. Chest pains No Yes Date Still Have? 11. Fatigue or weakness of feeling ill No Yes Date Still Have? 12. Frequent of recurring chills No Yes Date Still Have? Persons with a positive PPD who are experiencing symptoms should receive a chest x-ray to assess for pulmonary tuberculosis.
