Hello everyone

I recently joined this wonderful group and it is actually my first post on this forum. So I was wondering if anyone has had a positive TB test outcome following a Quantiferon test done while undergoing chemotherapy and what approach was adopted in dealing with it

    Welcome! I don't know either but I assume they would treat the TB. 3-6 months of isoniazid I think (don't really know). The question you should ask is whether the TB drugs interact at all with your cancer treatment.

    (Sorry you ave this additional issue)
