positive skin test
My daughter had 2 skin tests when she came home in 2004. They both came back negative (she had 2 because the nurse messed up the injection!!!!). Then this summer she had to have another skin test to enroll in Kindergarten. It came back positive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
So I took her for the chest x-ray and it came back clear (thank God).  So she has been on the Isoniazid for 2 months now-only 7 more to go!!!!!
They think it came back negative the first time(s) because it most likely was within 6 months of getting the vaccine in Guatemala. I never did get a record of when she got that vaccine so it's very possible.
I never even thought about mentioning it to her dentist, but it makes sense.
