Tuberculosis

2017-06-29 12:00:43
I am 20 years old. My husband is having TB. I kissed him and some days back and also we got sexually involved. We didn't know that he is suffering from TB. His reports are 10% positive. Am I also suffering from TB? Did the bacteria entered my body also? Does the disease spread through kissing and sexual intimacy also. Please help
