not sure what to do now

Dear Dr. I have written before and had allott of problems well just as it seemed I was gonna give up and look in another state for a Dr. and hospital to give me a transplant the hospital I have been going to decided I had done everything that was required of them and they were making plans to start the school process and then the medical testing for transplant they assigned me a transplant nurse and needless to say I was feeling pretty good.......well they gave me a list of tests that my reg doctor was suposed to do which I scheduled one was a tb test well they did it and it turned red now I don't know what to do or whats gonna happen my regular doctor says the hard part of the test wasn't big enough so it shouldn"t be positive but he isn't gonna do anything just send the paper work in to the hospital
and he said he was gonna leave it up to them.the doctor at unc has already told me they only deal with the liver nothing else so now I don't know whats gonna happen I don't have any symtoms (symptoms) of tb I was vaxinated when I was a kid and when I joined the service is there anything you can tell me will this stop me from getting a transplant if all else is healthy thankyou

it is possible that this is a reaction to something callled BCG that some people received as a child.  it should not stand in your way of being a transplant candidate.  you might want to see an ID expert for clearance.
