TB started off in the Uk. In the early 60's many people died here because of it due to poor sanitation in all the wet wheather and the big stink.\nThis is not a disease only in less fortunate countries.

Try! you are very, very welcome.  Don't listen to WOLLYwomb & Martin B.  As employers, we adore you people coming to our lovely country.  Before the Eastern Europeans arrived, employers really suffered trying to get staff. Young Brits don't really like working, or they like to be paid in cash, so it doesn't interfere with their benefit claims.  Then there was the many, many, many,many, many, sick days, normally after a binge-drinking evening.  So keep trying. WE NEED YOU!

Surely you have travel insurance ?  Can't the travel insurance company fix you up with a solicitor ?  \n\nYou could also try asking the British Embassy/Consulate in Brazil for advice.

Historically people from UK have gone to other countries and taken advantage of the people and resources...just returning the favor. Y'all would have been here had we not kicked your butts in the American Revolutionary War. I do not mean to be offensive to the UK at large, just bigots like you.

Once you've been tested, and test 'POS' (positive), you should never be re-tested. All future test results will be POS, which shows that you have the TB antibody in your system because you have been exposed to it already. You should get a chest x-ray right away! Consult a Doctor first, of course. Re-testing could lead to a 'super bug' strain, the same as abusing antibiotics for common Flu-like ailments.  Are you sure he has TB, where's the proof, where are you from, how old are you, and if you knew he was sick, why did you subject yourself to this disease?! Sounds kinda fishy to me; or are you ignorant! Believe me, sex ain't worth dying for! And neither is he if he doesn't care enough about himself or you, to put you in jeopardy! What city do you live in, let's all steer clear of that place! That's how epidemics get started!  Shame, shame on you both, may God have pity on your souls, AMEN!!!!!

At last someone apart from myself that has noticed the large vacuum of intelligence that is apparent across the Atlantic!\n\nEven better this person is putting this statistic to some beneficial use.\n\nUnfortunately, it may take some time to get these idiots over here as the vast majority have never been outside of the almighty USA. Hence do not possess a passport!  \n\nThe British government has promised to "fast-track" any such passport application in order to assist.\n\nBoth UK and US major flight operators have also promised to increase seat sizes on their transatlantic flights in order so these idiots can get they fat butts in safely!

Some of the TB drugs are available in syrup form. You really have to check your doctor and insist. Also pay a visit to a good pharmacist; they often know more details about drugs than doctors.

If you find the answer then please let me know, I returned to the UK 18 months ago and it took me three months to be able to open a UK bank account (I am British) although I had an European bank account. Still saving the deposit to buy, so even a 100% mortgage seems difficult

TB is very dangerous and very serious.  Herbal remedies won't be enough.  You need to follow through with the antibiotic from the doctor.  You must take them for a very long time and you cannot drink alcohol with them, but it is worth it to save your life!  Please reconsider following the doctor's orders -- it is proven that it will help get rid of TB!

No one will check your passport on your way out and even if they do they will not bother taking any actions - they have more than enough paperwork to do. But if you want to be double sure get a doctor's letter stating that you had stomach bug or something and you were not in condition to travel... Every other GP in U.K. is Indian so you will have no trouble getting a letter. They might charge you £20 - £30 but that is by far better investment than £500 for visa extension you do not need.

Do you have anyone to help you pack? And, please, when you're applying for visas, don't put Canada on your list. We don't need an obese, illiterate, negative slob using our health care system and contributing nothing back in return. There is poverty everywhere in the world. Travel brochures don't distribute photos of homeless shelters/welfare lines in the UK or anywhere. Americans are not better than anyone else but in the US and Canada, there are more opportunities to make a good life for yourself. Takes work, though, and a positive attitude. Your community/government are only as good as the people who are in it so try bitching less and doing more.

well. are there no pharmacies in the UK? are there no doctors in the UK? You definitely don't want to get it illegally...If you need it, the doc will give it to you.

Well never having been to America, your system, whilst different to ours in England does have the same thread running through it so to speak.  Here in Britain it is the councils who create the ghetto's They tend to take a place that has or is starting to get a bit of a bad name and they start putting petty criminals, nuisance neighbours, rowdy types into that area.  The decent people living there do their very best then to get out but nobody wants to exchange houses with them, the council will not allow a transfer unless there is a serious reason such as a medical one, and if they have been unfortunate enough to have bought their council house, nobody wants to buy it from them. They are then well & truly stuck whilst the council continue to put the dross onto the estate. I believe it is for the purpose of facilitating the council's own interests and that of the police. I know this sounds awful but that is what I believe. I am so sorry for you if you are stuck in a situation like that & I hope that you find some peace somewhere
