I have someone coming to see me as a client who has second stage T.B.. It has lodged in their sacrum. I have not met them yet and so cannot verify this information. I would like to know what state the bone will be in and if it is in the S.I. joint what will the biomechanics of the joint possibly be after 2 years. They are not H.I.V. positive  and get around in a wheelchair. I realise this is very vauge but I am having trouble finding any information on re-hab for T.B. arthritis (if that is what I am looking at).

I urge you to contact National Jewish Hospital, by calling their LUNG LINE nurse, at 1-800-222-LUNG(5864), and then press "5" to speak with a nurse.

There are experts about TB at National Jewish Hospital, who can answer your question, and give you referrals, if necessary.

Sincerely,
Concerned lady
